You mean I can convert the sta_h2.h file from the above link to some binary file and let orinoco+Dave's patches load that firmware to the card? I'm asking this because I also have a bunch of Hermes I and Hermes II cards, which don't work with the Orinoco driver, but with the "brought somewhat up to kernel 2.6" wlags_h2_718.tgz driver from the above link. That driver works, but hurts the eyes, and now has some problems with 2.6.25, e.g. at unloading time.
