Yeah, these are terminal commands.  But you found that out...  Are you
familiar at all with 'minicom' at all?  There's some upcoming stuff that
allows us to actually talk to these modems and find out their status,
since they dont' provide a very good AT command set.  We can try to see
if the device supports any commands, but otherwise we'll need to wait a
bit until we can get the new stuff in...
