>Description:
	Some tips on making the Alcatel SpeedTouch USB even easier to
	use under FreeBSD. This covers making usbd aware of the device
	and setting it to automatically transmit the firmware and
	dialing at startup.

	Original idea: Jason Mann <jason@b0rken.org>
	DocBook conversion: Dominic Marks <dom@cus.org.uk>
