Re: Intel 536 modem

That must have been the last version that was come-up with before the
"hooks" were pulled. Sometimes they just do that.
I came across an interesting mailing list exchange between a kernel
maintainer and someone who bought a philips web cam just before they
pulled those hooks. The web cam owner started out very polite and over
the course of 6 or 8 exchanges, you could see the poor guy descending
into madness. The philips ones seem to back in though, this week anyway :).
