[FredLug] Google Cr-48

[Derek Tracy]

Setting it up was a bit of a PITA, I was on the phone with Verizon
tech-support and they had no clue what I was talking about.  Google provided
0-documentation or instructions about setting it up.  Finally after an hour
of transferring around Verizon offices they got me in touch with someone who
gave me the associated phone # for the device and was able to turn on
service.  It's been up and running since.
