My WWAN stopped working today, probably due to installation of a new kernel on 
9/30/2010, followed by my first cold boot today. Warm reboots/suspend-resume 
kept my firmware loaded for about a week.
$ uname -srvmo
Linux 2.6.32-25-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 17 20:05:27 UTC 2010 x86_64 
GNU/Linux

So I installed linux-backports-modules-wwan-lucid-generic from Synaptic. Then I 
copied my firmware files to /etc/firmware/gobi:
$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/firmware/gobi
$ sudo cp /lib/firmware/gobi/* /etc/firmware/gobi/

I had my firmware in /lib/firmware/gobi, but I don't think that worked.
Since someone above mentioned /etc/firmware/gobi I just put it in both
places. Now it works great!
