Is : it likely nokia would provide the sources or a *BSD driver? I've been working on a driver for a while that would wrap the Linux driver. It has been slow going and might not be possible in the end. I've a skeleton driver, but it gives nothing but panics when I try to use it and it gets into the binary gooball :-( Maybe if I can find a few days to concentrate on it I could make more progress.
