Ok, so this device probably requires the fake-cd eject procedure done
with usb_modeswitch.  Is that working?  Does usb_modeswitch have the
correct information (usb ids, etc) for this device?  If not, you'll want
to get usb_modeswitch to add them upstream.

Once that's done, you'll have the tty ports, and modem-manager should at
least start talking to the device. Can you attach the modem-manager
--debug output from after the device is flipped to modem mode?
