Yes .. but it leads to inconsistency between non-hotplugged machine and hotplug
enabled ones ... For the former we know that the module is not unloaded and
therefore we could have some static (common to all instance of a modem)
information whereas on hotplug-enabled we can't take it for granted ...

Yep .. This is a point : in this case the moem is seen as a post-firmware (i.e
that is what happened in my box even when it was off, as USB ports were still
pwered on ..) .. We have no clue in this case to get the firmware level ...
except for explicitely checking the product id ...

Thus I think we should use product id everywhere instaed of the current bugged
implementation .. but I'm not sure it will fix the original poster problem
where the modem was Operational in the 2 examples he submited ...
