Crap!  I'm seeing that same behavior.  I noticed a couple days ago that Firefox didn't seem to be working anymore and put it aside for this weekend.  I guess this was the first time using mobile data since I switched the APN to vzwapp a couple weeks ago.

Brief testing seemed to show that I could set vzwapp to autoconnect and use as the default, then switch to vzwinternet in gnome-settings if I need to use mobile data.  Any MMS messages then get stuck until I switch back to vzwapp.  I think I can live with that in the short run but in the long run I'll vote for handling the dual APNs.  I'm going to research a possible DNS problem here too.

I haven't seen any segfaults (yet) but with the general flakiness I've seen in the mobile stack, I suspect switching APNs back and forth more than occasionally will probably FUBAR the modem (or related software) and require a reboot.
