Integrated Fingerprint ReaderIBM released a second generation of T42 models in autumn 2004 featuring Intel Pentium M 765 processors and an integrated fingerprint reader. The fingerprint reader is produced by a company called UPEK, which is specialized to fingerprint readers. It seems to be integrated as a USB device. Furthermore, IBM states that there's an interface with the Embedded Security Subsystem. |
Linux Support
Nothing is known so far about if it's supported under Linux or not, but some work is going on - see links below.
