question for Microsoft, Microsoft drivers

Sorry if this has been asked before, only nothing came up in the search,
When can we expect to see Microsoft drivers for the Internet Keyboard and
Explorer mouse, so we can reprogram the function buttons?

Yes we know that x64 does not but the question is "when". Is it then true
that Microsoft plans to, but noone seems to know?

AFAIK, MSFT doesn't make any hardware, it's contracted and they're
dependent upon the manufacturers to provide the 64 bit drivers.

I'm sure they're leaning on them as hard as they can!

The question is targetted specifically towards Microsoft Branded hardware.

I've brought this up with the hardware team that owns these devices; it's in
the hands of the devs now.

Once I hear something I'll post it.
