Hi Mark,

the core changes are in Emulator/PCMCIA/TLinearCard.cpp . These changes 
implement the actual card emulation. Writing the contents of the card 
back to a file on the device is only done when Einstein quits. This is 
bad for iOS since apps never externally quit. I will have to implement 
some timer that writes actual changes every few seconds or so.

There is also a lot of code that manages creation of cards, and the user 
interface to insert cards, mostly in app/TFLSettings*.cpp . There is new 
code to insert and eject card in Emulator/Platform/TPlatformManager.cpp

You can look at what exactly changed here:

I also did a few tiny changed in the Network emulation that should 
probably be backported.
