That is actually not correct. ATD*99 is a form used for backward
compatibility. It is described in Section 10.2 of 3GPP 27.007. This form is
frequently used as a shortcut and known by most users. It is however not the
'proper' way to establish a GPRS context. The proper way is actually a bit
more involved, but offers greater flexibility. This is what oFono will use.

We will not use pppd. We're working on our own ppp solution for oFono. This
is a work in progress and thus ppp devices are not yet supported.
