I feel this should be blacklisted because 1)on its own - it does nothing - extra
software is required to use this 2)this doesn't work
with all modems utilizing this chip - and for some it blocks their use. So, in
a way this driver is broken, at least for some modems using this chip.
Probably, the best solution would be to work with Linuxant to officially support
this driver in Ubuntu, however - Ubuntu should accomodate this driver as much as
possible otherwise - as not to make it hard for novices to install it.
