I should change this to be:

- An interface with the 'modem' capability may also acquire the property
'modem.command_sets', which is a string array of supported command
sets, denoted by their abbreviated standards name.  The key may contain
_one or more_ of the following values:

   a) IS-707-A  (for CDMA supporting cards)
   b) GSM-07-07 (for GSM supporting cards)
   c) GSM-07-05 (for GSM supporting cards)
   d) V.250     (ie, Hayes compatible)
