Sprint PCS is giving away free (I'm sure there's a catch) wireless modems
at http://sprintpcs.i33.com/b2bwwmodem/signup.asp.

I got mine in the mail just now.  It's a CDMA modem of some kind, made by
Sierra Wireless, alleged to run at 14.4 kbps.  Naturally, I'm interested
in getting it running under FreeBSD.

I added it to pccard.conf as a modem, following the lead of the Novatel
Merlin entry and pccardd coredumps when the card is inserted under
4.4-STABLE.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd be interested in hearing them, but this
message is mostly informational.

Here's the output of a dumpcis:
