If we could provide a universal bundle (which would work with all  
devices supported by the driver) it would be a nice option to provide  
to those who need it. I get bashed a lot in the Estonian MUG forum for  
problems that stem from low level issues (readers, drivers, lack of  
them, misconfigured etc) so a single and tested solution interests me  
a lot.

I don't have any pinpad readers at hand currently but next I'll test  
some of them on mac.

I believe pinpads are something that are neither supported by the  
apple driver nor designed into relevant apple frameworks (remember -  
tokend still asks 'please enter the password for keychain X' if you  
are using a smart card and should enter a PIN code. It might be  
misdeveloped tokend too of course...)
