Sorry, I had a fire to put out.  You'll have your Spyrus application by
the end of the day.

It's official.  We've run out of the older style ATR String cards for
creating Manager Cards.

Any status update on this rcr?

I'd like to request a new votercard.dll file for the 3.x Ballot Station
Software to include a new ATR String on the latest version of the 4KB
smartcards coming out of our vendor.  Please see the attached Word
document
for the ATR String detail (The 15th byte has changed due to an upgrade
in
the Major OS Version.)

This votercard.dll file is required to update the CPM (Card Production
Manager) Software which we use to produce Manager Cards.  Although the
CPM
is a version 2.x software, the votercard.dll for 3.x is compatible.
This is
required by March 22nd, 2002 as, by that time, we will exhaust our
supply of
4KB cards with the previous ATR string that currently works with the
CPM.
Although we will refrain from shipping these cards to existing AV-TS R4
customers and supply them with the 1KB memory cards that we have
remaining
in stock, the votercard.dll file may also be needed for loading onto
existing AV-TS R4 Ballot Stations/PollBooks for customers that
desperately
need new smart cards at a time when we have depleted our 1KB stock.

Although testing has shown that this doesn't affect 4.x Ballot Station
software (CE and NT versions), please verify that there are no potential
side effects.

If you'd like the details on the chain of events that lead to this, let
me
know and I'll provide them sometime next week.

Sincerely,
