Posting this link so it does not get lost; some code may be useful http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/panel-plugins/xfce4-cellmodem-plugin The xfce cellmodem panel applet appears to do some sort of status and strength monitoring. Not sure if you could generalise this beyond what they have done (a whitelist) as I am not sure how standardised the various AT and non AT command based ways are of getting signal strength.
