Eric L. yes...

Thank you.

Gemplus is really going to be explosive. My only question right now is:

How are they going to intertwine the cards and readers? My point is this: If you have an AmEx Blue Card, you must have that GCR415 reader too. What happens when you get the Visa SmartCard from Gemplus? It won't work on that AmEx Blue Card reader. You must unplug one reader and plug in the other one (and restart your system?).

I have an idea that there will be a single reader that will read all cards, regardless of the manufacturer. Part of my idea is at:

prodpur.wavesys.com

Though it will cost $.50, I think you will find it provactive.
