I do not know the answer you are looking for.  I DO know that I recently
installed Ubuntu 10.10 on someones laptop.  When we plugged in the USB 3G
modem from Verizon, it was recognized.  A popup asked what carrier and after
we selected Verizon we had only to answer a couple of questions for it to
work.  I did not do any checking about how it might handle power saving in a
battery mode.
