Apple has stated on its website that will add support for Windows 7 to Boot Camp later this year. "Apple will support Microsoft Windows 7 (Home Premium, Professional, and Ultimate) with Boot Camp in Mac OS X Snow Leopard before the end of the year. This support will require a software update to Boot Camp."

The official WiFi and GPU drivers are relatively ancient and cause issue with some applications (to be fair the official Mac OS X WiFi driver is not as good as the updated Broadcom one on Windows either as far as WiFi stability is concerned [it just won't like to be assigned an address through DHCP and has other stability issues]).
Can't you just install the latest official Broadcom or Intel/Nvidia drivers in Windows 7? Couldn't Apple just package them up anyway? After all, when you're running Windows, you're running completely like a normal PC, so normal drivers will work.
