I've just bought a 3G Mobile Broadband plan from Vodafone. Anyone got a
working wvdial.conf file?

I'm running a recent kernel so the device is detecting ok:

$ less /var/log/messages
Apr 15 15:48:45 uva kernel: [12639.596000] option 5-2:1.0: GSM modem
(1-port) converter detected

/build/buildd/linux-source-2.6.22-2.6.22/drivers/usb/serial/option.c: USB 
Driver for GSM modems: v0.7.1

And the devices are being created ok & I'm in the dip group:

$ ls -al /dev/ttyUSB*
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 0 2008-04-15 16:34 /dev/ttyUSB0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 188, 1 2008-04-15 16:22 /dev/ttyUSB1
