So if we ignore occasional high values you get about 24mA when the driver is
bound, and about 45mA when not bound.

That is the oppositte of what I get for loading and unloading, which is
surprising.

Is this will the modem still turned off? (Do you have an A3 or an A4?).

I might try the bind/unbind approach and see if I get similar results.

I might try the neil-plus kernel to do see if that makes any difference.
