Thanks to all for the reply to my simple (maybe not ? :-) request on
smartcards.
The world around this objects is too complex and unknown also to the
smartcard vendors, then asking them any information may result in an
inpredictable series of incomprehensible phrases ...
Erwann answer seem to be the closest to my request, so can you (Erwann)
tell us exactly what type of gemplus card use, because the gemplus cards
are so many ...
Thanks to all... i remain out of the window to look for other
solutions...
Sergio.
