[Novalug] connecting from my laptop

[Pete Nuwayser]

I use my phone as a modem.  Motorola MotoRAZR V3xx 3G phone on AT&T,
connected via USB and detected as /dev/ttyACM0 with a couple of
scripts.  Works great with ubuntu 7.10, but I haven't figured out how
to get it working with NetworkManager yet.

google on "tethered modem v3xx cingular" for more info
