I had problems in Feisty, but got it working in Dapper.  Does dmesg
and /var/log/syslog say it has been recognised?  Make sure /dev/ttyS0
(or in your case ttyS1) really is the correct device.

The files I used are at
http://kubuntu.org/~jriddell/vodafone-3g-datacard/

wvdial.conf in /etc or course and wvdial in /etc/ppp/peers/

dialed with 

wvdial option 3gonly internet 384k

My one didn't come with a pin set as far as I've seen, and I havn't
needed it.

I also needed to set resolv.conf manually.
