I tested both rndis modules with my HTC Touch Cruise PDAPhone that runs under Windows Mobile 6: the current one in hardy does not work but the rndis-lite does work. Since most Ubuntu users will use rndis to connect to a WM5/6 PDAPhone, making the switch would greatly improve their experience.
Another approach to fix this bug would be to replace the current rndis subsystem in the kernel by the rndis-lite subsystem that can be found there:
