http://pastebin.ca/1403580 - that's all what you need to get it
working with wvdial. It's a modern digital GPRS/EDGE modem with "old
style modem emulation" (I think so :) )...

I'm also have Huawei E220 3G UMTS/HSDPA USB modem - it working fine
with Ubuntu 9.04 and NetworkManager. But I need to watch signal level
and other statistics - how to do that in NetworkManager?

If this is not implemented in NetworkManager - I thinking about to
implement it in future... but do not have free time...
