I'm looking for a SmartCard PCMCIA reader for my Powerbook that works officialy on OS X. So far, I have only found ones that are USB and work on OS X.

I'd like to play with the SmartCard authentication services in OS X.

SmartMedia as a format is dead, but a 4 in 1 PCMCIA card reader will work:

CompUSA has same for twice the price.

Not SmartMedia memory cards, but SmartCards used for security and such.

So far, I haven't turned up a PCMCIA one that will work on OS X.
