Got the CDROM out of creation. /etc/udev/rules.d/55-umts.rules:

# Novatel MC950D 4G-device
SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="1410", ATTRS{idProduct}=="5010",
RUN+="/usr/bin/usb_modeswitch -Q -v 1410 -p 5010 -d1"

gives a tail of /var/log/messages of:

But right-buttom clicking on 
Network Manager->edit connections->mobile broadband shows still no
entries, and creation in System->Network->devices->new->modem fails
(no modem found). Any further hints?
