Did it this way:
http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Tech/Wireless/Truemobile_ndiswrapper
This is the right driver: http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R174291.exe
You can extract it and use the bcmwl5.inf from the DRIVER_US folder. 
Worked like a charm for me (HP DV7-1070 with a Broadcom 43xx wireless 
device).
