I contacted Leif Scheppelmann at Cotech.de.  He says they don't have a shop for
their cards because end user market is too small.  However, he's going to send
me a card for 15€ (+3 shipping).  I'll write when I'll have received it.  For
now, let me just quote his words:

    Unfortunately you are not able to use your 4096-key with our card. We
    just support 2048-keys. Our assumption is that the amount of energy that
    can be shipped over NFC is limited. We are in contact with the supplier
    to get 4096-keys working. In future we will switch to ecc-keys by
    default in all our applications.

    We are following ISO/IEC 7816 Part1-4, ISO14443 Part1-4 and Java Card
    3.0.4 specification and using the OpenPGP-Card-Applet. The card supports
    common algorithms such as MD5, SHA-family, DES, AES, RSA.

I think you may want to mention those cards on your Implementations of the
OpenPGP application for smart cards page.


Best
Ale
