It's weird to read this coming from a country that basically bundles PIV with your ID. Once every few years you take a new picture and go grab it from a police station in half an hour and that's basically it. And at the same time support this widespread would not exist without the U.S. using PIV, so I'm glad people bother :D I also recall some U.S. government site recommending a small and sleek card reader designed here (folds into an USB-stick shape). Hopefully these processes improve and systems become more interoperable cross-borders at some point.
