You missunderstood,

by "portable" i meant that if the chip is hardwired into a computer and contains your ecommerce info and security, then you are the only one who can use that computer for that purpose. Whereas a smartcard can be used on any computer, as long as it has a reader. The info on the chip is specific to the device on which it is stored whereas a smartcard is particular to the user, allowing greater flexibility.
