Re: [Openbts-discuss] SIM Card System

[Daigle, F. <fd...@cm...>]

Thank you Ralph. This is good information.

I could not make my cheap chineese card reader work with pyscard software. I tought that my limited skills with Linux was the cause of this but I start suspecting the card reader. They software that Green Card Chinat provided me is working great but is somehow limited.

I need 10 more reader for my classroom and I was about to buy the same that I already have but you convinced me to try the SCM3500 before placing my new order.

Thanks again,
Frédéric

My experience with a two cheap china card readers wasn't very good - they
both only worked with some crappy software that came with them, but none of
the standard tools was able to control them. A German saying tells us, buy
cheap, buy twice :) ACK! So I went for a SCM reader, the SCM3500 does a fine
job, and all common Windows and Linux tool seem to accept it. The SCT3512 is
the actual successor...

Ralph.
