I did some testing this evening, and can confirm that on Wheezy and
Jessie, adding a file to /lib/udev/rules.d/ containing the following
lines will prevent modem-manager from crashing Palm M500, M505, and M515
handhelds. If it's beneficial, I can try to dig through the source for
the Palm/Visor driver for other USB PID/VID pairs that correspond to old
Palm handhelds.
