I read the description of CFUN in that document and got lost rather 
quickly.  The bottom line is that oFono does not use any serial 
signaling, so all of these DTR and RTS conditions do not apply.  If the 
Telit modems do not support radio off with SIM on, then you need to 
structure the driver differently, most likely removing the 'online' 
method implementation would do what you want, and use only 
enable/disable.  In theory that should work putting the modem online as 
soon as the sim is in the ready state.

Better yet, ask Telit to fix their firmware and document what the <rst> 
parameter to CFUN actually means.

It follows the 'Powered' property meaning.  E.g. 'is this thing on?' 
Most regular modem devices enter airplane mode when the driver enabled() 
function is called.  However, that is not the case everywhere.
