The ExternalAccessory framework can communicate with accessories both via the dock connector and via bluetooth. However those bluetooth accessories have to be specifically designed for the iPhone to make use of that capability.

You'll need to apply for the Made For iPod/Works with iPhone programme at http://developer.apple.com/ipod/ and sign the relevant NDAs (and enter into a contractual agreement with Apple for revenue sharing) before you can have access to the technical details you'll need to modify the card reader to work with the iPhone.
