Since Internet enabling Smart Card readers is one of the more obvious
potentially lucrative markets for Embedded Java to be in, one would think that
there would be more tools available in this area.

I was a VISA Blue SmartCart contestant a couple of years ago and at that time I
tried extremely hard to get the Gemplus smart card reader software to work with
TINI. Unfortunately, the Gemplus developers seemed to be completely unaware of
the constraints that most Embedded Java systems work under and their code was
completely unusable on TINI.  An example if this is that doubles were heavily
used throughout the code when smaller data types would have been sufficient.

What kind of a smart card application are you working on?  Also, what is the
model of the Gemplus reader you are using?
