Well, according to the device manual, the USB host interface is:

 "USB Device (identifies itself as a CDC device)"

which I read as "this device should already be supported by cdc_acm",
although it is not clear what CDC subclass they refer to.  lsusb -v
output would sure be interesting.

Anyway, it might be worth trying the device *without* fiddling with the
generic USB serial driver or spending several minutes writing a new
driver :-)
