Sprint Merlin S720 (EV-DO PC Card) Modem Parent.

If the listings above do not appear, identify the listing for the
Sprint Mobile Broadband Card by ejecting the card. This
causes the driver listing for the card to disappear from the
list. Reinsert the card again to cause the driver listing to
reappear. You can identify the entries for the Sprint Mobile
Broadband Card by observing which entries are affected
when you eject and reinsert the card.
