I'm not sure - you may well be correct, though I personally don't feel 
it's that much of a hardship to have the full source.

Sure, it works fine for AT commands.

The phone (or at least my 7600) has one endpoint for the default (first) 
interface.  If you instead choose the first alternative you get two 
endpoints (one for AT, one for FBUS).  With a 6230 you may well get 
another for mass storage, don't know.  The problem is that if cdc-acm gets 
to the phone first, my module doesn't get a look in.
