What is the preferred Sim Card Reader/Writer for the SysmoSim Card, A.K.A., the GrCard Sim?
There is no "preferred reader". Any reader compatible with ISO 7816-2 an -3 should work with the SIM Card. Otherwise, how would one make sure that the sim card works in all phones?
And is the following known to work reliably with the SysmoSim Card? SIM Reader kit - v1.0http://www.adafruit.com/products/101I contacted Adafruit.com yesterday and they explained that their device doesn't work on all Sim Cards.
Well, then _they_ should be able to explain why that is, and what exactly those restrictions are.
I would strongly recommend for a device that claims compliance to the ISO 7816 specs. And I would go for a reader that supports USB-CCID and is compatible with libccid / pcsc-lite on Linux: http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/ccid/supported.html
