Ok, so it really is an X220.  There's a plugin for that already, the
"x22x" plugin, which was added on Wed Sep 22 2010.  I think what's going
on here though is that the Longcheer plugin (which supports the Alcatel
X030s and X060s) needs to be more careful about what modems it tries to
grab.  I'll fix that up in git, and then I'd expect your device to be
handled by the "x22x" plugin.
