Anyone know of a keyboard that has both a fingerprint and smart card reader and is FIPS 201 compliant?

Edit: I'm looking for a product that is currently on the market and certified.

Not sure about the FIPS 201 compliance, but Cherry has keyboards with a fingerprint reader and a smartcard reader, like the G83-14201 and the G83-14401

Edit: apparently, according to this press release, the sensor TouchChip TSC1 is FIPS 201 compliant. That's the sensor used in the G83-14401

UPEK’s TouchChip TCS1 fingerprint sensor is the first and only silicon fingerprint sensor to be approved by the FBI and GSA for FIPS 201 applications

Cherry G83-14401 specs:

USB keyboard with fingerprint sensor and PC/SC smart card reader

Capacitive fingerprint sensor TCS1CD from UPEK (ST-Micro) with TouchChip® technology 256x360 pixel

I've already spoken to Cherry and they don't have FIP's compliant keyboards that have both the smart card reader and the fingerprint reader. Their only FIPS compliant keyboards have only the smart card reader. – Taylor Leese Sep 28 '09 at 23:13
