Its odd, but I can mount my USB devices as 'anton'. Its back to the MAN pages. In this case the MOUNT man page, which explains how non-root users can mount things:

Yes, but that doesn't apply if you give more than one parameter to the mount command. As soon as you specify anything more than the device or mount point, the fstab entry is overridden, and you can no longer mount as user. halmount should work, but since hal is deprecated it won't be around much longer.
