I will make it short. .Net cards are great to work with Windows and the Microsoft ecosystem, and Java Card 3 is great to work with the Web at large.

There is room for both approaches, even if I personnally think that Java Card 3 is more likely to win this one.

During JSR 177 discussions, a well known mobile phone manufacturer from Scandinavia was strongly opposed to the APDU API supported by the mobile operators. Negotiations where blocked. Until somebody proposed to have both: APDU API *plus* Java Card RMI API, which was satisfactory for everybody.

Nowadays, JSR 177 APDU API is used in some satellite TV decoders (not exactly it’s intended use). Which would not be possible if Java Card RMI had not existed. Things are rarely useful the way it was expected or designed for, does not mean they are useless :-)

This “No comment” tells me that the post is right, where I kinda hoped that it was not.
