It is strongly advised not to mix allow and deny in one place - and 
in this case it is not required anyway. Wherever you have an allow, 
there is an implicit "deny anything not allowed"; and wherever you 
have a deny, there is an implicit "allow anything not denied".

If you mix allow and deny, then the results are not what most people 
expect. I can never remember how it works, but it is **NOT** "work 
down the list until you reach something that matches".

So for this one, all you need to do is allow "ALCATEL-iptouch" and 
"somePhones" - once you've got an allow statement, everything else is 
implicitly denied.
