Hi everyone.
I happen to have a laptop with a slot that is a smart card reader. I was wondering if it it's at all possible to use this slot in the same way that an express card slot may be used (i.e. with an adapter that gets inserted into the slot) to add functionality that wasn't there before.
For instance, you know how you can insert an express card into a laptop's express card slot to add functionality that wasn't there before (like USB 3.0 ports, an additional graphics card, an SDXC card reader, etc.)?
Is it possible to do the equivalent with a laptop's smart card reader and some kind of special smart card adapter that could be inserted into the smart card reader's slot?
Thank you.
