Comment(by mbletsas):

 Replying to [comment:1 dgilmore]:
 > The correct answer here is to move to NetworkManager-0.7 which natively
 supports mobile broadband cards  and adding support to sugar for multiple
 network devices. so usb ethernet adapters will work also.

 That's very good news!
 However in the short term, we need wvdial to support USB modems.
 So please add it with a note to remove it when we move to NM-0.7 (sooner
 rather than later hopefully).
