Ordering OpenPGP Smartcards and readers

Basically, you need two things: A card and a card-reader. The card is about 15 euro, max. And it can hold three subkeys of 4096 bits. The reader offered by the same company is usb-stick sized and costs about 20 euro.

Below is a list of people who want to order (one or both) of these pieces. If you can, please sponsor one extra set so we can have a few extra in case more people show up during workshops, or in the future.

List of people who would like to order a smartcard and/or usb reader:

  • Wizzup (1x smartcard, 1x reader, will sponsor: 1x smartcard, 1x reader)
  • Chotee (1x smartcard, 1x reader)
  • Phicoh (1x smartcard, 1x reader)
  • Julf (2x smartcard, 2x reader)
  • Narya (2x smartcard, 2x reader, plus sponsoring: 2x smartcard, 2x reader)

Random resources
