I just downloaded and tried the latest MPLAB (8.15a) on my vista 64
bit system and have the real ice working.  This MPLAB comes with 64
bit XP and Vista drivers for most of the microchip programmers and
debuggers, and has been out for a little while.

Just thought there might be a few others who hadn't heard that might
want to know.  One less reason to keep the old xp laptop around.  Now
if I could get Atmel to support Vista 64 for their Arm and AVR32
lines...

As a point of data:
 - I've only tried real ice with a simple example LED program,
programming, reading, breakpoints, single stepping, etc all appear to
work
 - I'm running Vista Ultimate (I don't know what the differences are
practically, but I've heard that it makes a difference for some
software - don't know about mplab)
 - I'm running the pic32 - haven't tried any other processors/setups/etc
