Default Smart Tag and Oyster card

I had the P4U orange package which didn't come with any smart tags to play with.

However i noticed that my Oyster card ( london underground) is picked up as a new TAG collected but as an unknown Tag Type. I was wondering if anyone has any knowledge in this area to use this TAG to log into TFL's website into my oyster account and tell me how much fund i have left?

Now that will be real cool if possible.

Oyster cards things use a proprietary protocol and are usually encrypted. You won't be able to read it with the Xperia S. Ever.
