Some notes for the archives in case anyone else gets one of these
evdo USB sticks with FreeBSD (in this case, RELENG_7)
I had to make this small addition to u3g.c in order to get the device
to work. Note, you still have to do a camcontrol eject pass0

Also, not sure if its an "activation" thing or not, but we had to run
the device once on a windows machine, otherwise we would get 0.0.0.0
as the IP address assigned. It might also be peculiar to Verizon,
but we also needed to add
deny chap
to our ppp.conf stanza.
