If you did is it possible to have some feedback?

I believe to have found a workaround to get the current "Connect for Office" (ver. 1.8.1.2) to work with Office 2010 . As you might have noticed, the installation of "Connect for Office" installs with no error for Office 2010, but the corresponding ribbons are missing in both Excel and Word.
If you have an Office 2007 installation with "Connect for Office" installed on another machine, you can copy the following files
Word 2007 to Word 2010
sforce.dot
sforce12.dotm
from C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\STARTUP (on your machine that runs Office 2007)
to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\STARTUP (on your machine that runs Office 2010)
Excel 2007 to Excel 2010
SFDC.xla
SFDC12.xlam
from C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\XLSTART (on your machine that runs Office 2007)
to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\XLSTART (on your machine that runs Office 2010)
This works for me on Windows 7 (32-bit) and with "Connect for Office" version 1.8.1.2 on both machines. After copying the files, the ribbons show up in Office 2010, I can log in and everything seems to work.
Please note, this is a workaround and you are doing this at your own risk.

I've done the Excel trick on about 20 computers. No issues at all.
I can't comment on Word.
