I've ordered 2 of these cards (ZC 2.4), and tested the demos with my
reader (GCR410 from Gemplus). 1 card is already out of service, and
doesn't answer to a reset... I only loaded the Calc demo app, tested it,
it worked.
On the other card, I loaded the Elliptic Curve demo, the demo works pretty
well, and the card is still functionning.
These cards seem very attractive, the Basic is not like the old Basics I
used to program when I was 7... But I find them too unstable...
