Actually, no, the new ComOS (3.7) will support both modem cards =)

Every evening/night I check to see if they've released the new ComOS -
they usually do things like that in the evening/night I've noticed =)

I wonder if 3.7 will be released for all platforms at once and will
include the 3.5.1b20 closed beta fixes for the WAN port bug?
