A pppd daemon? I imagine a scenario where I could hot-plug and hot-unplug the card several times during a session. Can pppd be started even if /dev/term/0 doesn't exist (the card was not inserted yet)? And would it be smart enough to handle a card removal gracefully so as to disable the sppp0 interface until it detects the card insertion again?
