Ok, definitively a race condition on udev, at least with the E1592, but also a modem_modeswitc problem, as it won't reliably switch the key into modem mode. The only way I can get it to switch to modem mode is with usb_modeswitch 1.0.5 (the one in karmic repositories is 1.0.2) and with a 10-hsdpa.rules file in /etc/udev/rules.d modem_modeswitc will switch it into modem mode once only. After that, the key gets into a state that if I remove it and reinsert it only usb_modeswitch can switch it again.
