drivers

I've just recently received my new MacBook Pro, and I've begun exploring Boot Camp; dual-booting Windows 7 Enterprise.

I've heard chatter that there are some new Boot Camp drivers--newer than the ones that come with your OSX Show Leopard installation CD. But I'm having a hard time locating them.

These updated drivers should fix a few issues with the trackpad, amongst other things.

Can you guys point me in the right direction?
