Ahh. Okay.  I understand now. Thanks. Sounds like a Microcom networking 
protocol issue.  Unfortunate that this couldn't be solved with a host-side 
virtual serial driver or something though.  Then it would be available to 
everyone without a hardware patch.

I can tell you that in my little time spent working with MNP (rewriting 
the PackageBuddy receiver) that the tools descendent from UnixNPI have 
indefinite waits for the acknowledgement before sending the next packet.  
My guess is that all OS X tools do the same.
