is this applicable to other linux distros also ?
It is applicable only in ubuntu . The wvdial tool and usb mode switch are available in almost all linux distributions. So you can install those and use the same wvdial.conf
1. does the modem cd provide a graphical dialer?
2. are speeds consistent, what average speeds are you getting?
