If I am already running OS 4.1 do I need to go that page and look for a 7100 series phone or does the 4.1 version I got from Hong Kong CSL work and I can start at step 4?

There is also a link on that page for the 7100g. If I were you, I would download both (they're kind of big files = 50 MB if I remember) and compare them. As you noted, the install routine will create a set of folders and the one for the 8700g creates an 8700 set of files (even though the 7100 data is in there) but the Desktop Manager/App Loader is probably not going to use it when a 71XX connects.
By comparing the files you can see if the same data is actually contained in the "blackberry.alx" file.
Don't try to force an 8700 install onto a 7100...
