Huh?  Didn't you have a MC7710?  That's supposed to have PBM according
to the version dump I sent a while ago.  I'm not currently able to test
and verify myself as I'm actually using mine for internet access in MBIM
mode right now, but will later if you havent' been able to.

Hmm, maybe I have the E392 with me.  Yup.  It also has PBM rev 1.4:

[04 Jul 2013, 09:40:08] [Debug] [/dev/cdc-wdm1]    pbm (1.4)


Hmm, this didn't work  too well:

bjorn at nemi:~$ qmicli -v -d /dev/cdc-wdm1  --pbm-get-all-capabilities
[04 Jul 2013, 10:45:18] [Debug] QMI Device at '/dev/cdc-wdm1' ready
[04 Jul 2013, 10:45:18] [Debug] [/dev/cdc-wdm1] Assuming service 'pbm' is supported...
error: couldn't create client for the 'pbm' service: Clients for service 'pbm' not yet supported


After adding the attached patch:

bjorn at nemi:~$ qmicli -d /dev/cdc-wdm1  --pbm-get-all-capabilities
error: couldn't get capabilities: QMI protocol error (103): 'PbNotReady'


and then after entering the pin code too :)
