Hi Allen -

In my travels trying to understand another problem I came across R1519
on the CPU schematic -- it pulls TX_MODEM up by 10K to 3.3V.

Do we really need this?  We can save <=330uA if the GSM stuff is powered
down by removing it.  Hey it sounds like nothing but it is up to 6% of
that 5mA suspend current.

Plus it can be source of the 2V on GSM Vdd you were trying to track down?
