 Jacques & Jacques
    Thanks.
scanModem wil progressively become more competent as we acculate data like
uswinmodem 0baf:6112

Currently the know cases in the internal archive are, (with first
entry the software suppotr type):
-----------------------------------
hsfmodem 0572:1300 0572:1301 0572:1302 0572:1303 08e3:0111 0803:1300
0803:1301 145f:0106 148d:1671 148d:1672
gdcmodem 0572:1320 0572:1321 0572:1322 0572:1323 0572:1324 0572:1328
0572:1329 0803:3095
agrsm 047e:2828 047e:2892
slusb 0483:7554
usbserial 0421:0428_6230i_Modem
hcfusbmodem 0572:1290 05AC:8202_apple

These scanModem will report on automatically.  So once a USBid like
0baf:6112, there will be a definitive output upon the next encounter.
