It should be possible to create a package for ordinary users, if there is a patched Kernel.

The steps are:
1. Download firmware. I don't know the legal situation.
wget ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp44501-45000/sp44916.exe
2. cabextract 44916.exe
3. Dialog that asks which firmware to use (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&objectID=c01738839&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN)
4. move firmware to /lib/firmware/gobi
5. install gobi_loader
6. insert qcserial and hp-wmi into /etc/modules.

A rfkill power switch somewhere would be nice , too.
