Yes, ejecting the 'cd0' appears to 'solve the problem'

The order of events was:

Boot the machine without u3g in the kernel
Insert the device
Issue the eject command: camcontrol eject pass0

the following appears in /dev

cuaU0.0
cuaU0.0.init
cuaU0.0.lock
cuaU0.1
cuaU0.1.init
cuaU0.1.lock
cuaU0.2
cuaU0.2.init
cuaU0.2.lock
cuaU0.3
cuaU0.3.init
cuaU0.3.lock

Removing the device produces:

u3g0: at ushub2, port 2, addr 2 (disconnected)
umass0: at ushub2, port 2, addr 2 (disconnected)
(da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): lost device
(da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): removing device entry
ugen2.2: <Novatel Wireless Inc.> at usbus2 (disconnected)

Reinserting the device produces:

ugen2.2: <Novatel Wireless Inc.> at usbus2
u3g0: <Data Interface> on usbus2
u3g0: Found 4 ports.
umass0: <Novatel Wireless Inc. Novatel Wireless CDMA, class 0/0, rev

The U727 has a 'MicroSD' memory card slot which in this case
has a 4gb card installed.

If the SD card never worked i wouldn't mind a bit :)
