Are you sure that the devices are self contained models?
Some of the devices I have seen are designed to connect either
to a handheld device (pocket pc) or directly to a computer.
If not there are several places that sell these devices.
It may be worth googling "card skimmer" or "mag stripe reader" and see
if any similar devices turn up. The self contained ones
I have seen just acted as storage devices. Does it have
replacable batteries? Sorry to state the obvious, but you never
know.
