Heh.  I *wish* I was the expert; certainly I try, but as Tatsumi-san 
will attest getting enough information in any one place to see much 
more than a sliver of the picture is very difficult.

On the modem card topic, to flip the picture 180deg., I am not aware of 
any plain-modem card in current circulation that does *not* work as 
expected with either vanilla 2.2.x or 3.x FreeBSD, or with the PAO 
extensions.
