Answering my own question: Here is how to get the firmware files...
1) Download 7xwc44ww.exe from http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-72938.html
2) Install wine and run "wine 7xwc44ww.exe". Follow the install until it will page fault.
3) Install cabextract and run "cabextract ~/.wine/drive_c/DRIVERS/WWANQL/Driver/GobiInstaller.msi".
4) md5sum _* | grep <md5 to look for> to select the correct file (filename is mangled)
