Cant seem to find any reference to ppp in the dmesg output, but a couple of invocations to pppd seen to run without errors. Also, ppp inside pptp vpn connections worked fine, so i'm guessing i have fully functional ppp stack. 4.

This identifies itself as a Focus-MID in fastboot, and on forums is more popularly known as a Herotab M816. The touchscreen is really bad, and camers+g-sensor are inoperative, but other than that, honeycomb is mighty stable on this, with almost no crashes or FC's, and even the market works great(though it's the gingerbread market, still looking for the honeycomb apk's).
