Hi Sjur,

> * CAIF provides a socket interface which can be used to open virtual AT
>   channels, create and configure GPRS Data connections.
> 
> * A CAIF Network device is also provided for GPRS access.
>   This interface can be managed with socket IOCTLs or RTNL.
> 
> * A kernel interface is provided allowing Kernel modules to use CAIF.

> * A serial link layer layer implemented as a line discipline is currently 
>   implemented. Other link interfaces may be contributed at a later stage.

any details on potential USB, SPI or SDIO drivers?
