[NTLUG:Discuss] Interesting USB device dmesg

[David Simmons]

Can anyone make heads or tails of this dmesg (this came right after
connecting a Samsung Backjack II phone into SuSE Linux 10):

usb
1-10: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3
usb
1-10: new device found, idVendor=04e8, idProduct=6662
usb 1-10: new
device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb 1-10: Product:
MITS USB RNDIS
usb 1-10: Manufacturer: Samsung
usb 1-10:
SerialNumber: 43bf5000-bf39-0801-16d0-021234540284
usb 1-10:
configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
usbcore: registered new
interface driver cdc_ether
eth2: register 'rndis_host' at
usb-0000:00:02.0-10, RNDIS device, 80:00:60:0f:e8:00
usbcore:
registered new interface driver rndis_host

Is this trying to
say that I now have another ethernet connection?  Hmmm...this is
interesting:

Now the question - how can I 'talk'
to this device?  I'd like it to come up as something I can mount and
send files to?

Thanks!
