The fix doesn't work for me, however it gave me some ideas -- thanks. I added the following lines to /usr/share/hal/fdi/preprobe/10osvendor/20-broken-usb-sticks.fdi :
    <match key="@storage.originating_device:usb.vendor_id" int="0x19d2">
       <match key="@storage.originating_device:usb.product_id" int="0x2000">
         <merge key="info.ignore" type="bool">true</merge>
       </match>
     </match>

Now, the kernel ignores the modem as usb-storage.
However, I still can't use it as a modem. It gets loaded with product_id=0x2000 and usbserial_generic.
Following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkManager/Hardware/3G/Probing#Testing%20your%20modem%20using%20wvdial , I get "modem not responding".
