    Greetings,

    Can anyone point me to a PC card or internal device that would allow use with a smart card or token on the Cf-19 mk5?

    There is an optional Smart Card Reader available for the CF-19.

    Also a PC card version.

    Thanks for the reply. I understand the cf-19 requirement for pcmcia express cards for both slot A and B. Rather, I am looking for a specific vendor or Model that would work with the mk5.

    The PC card I posted a pic of works in a mk5. The attached pic shows the screen when it is slotted into a mk5. Windows loads the drivers automatically.

    I don't have a smart card to test it, but inserting a credit card opens up a dialogue screen..

    Seem to be plenty on ebay.
