Oh, and I'm 99% sure you could use the smartcard portion to store your private certificates for something like OpenVPN. It's a standard PKCS#11 hardware widget after all, and OpenVPN can speak PKCS#11. I just haven't seen any howto showing how to do it, and I could not find the time to research this option.
