OLE DB2 driver for Reporting Services

Question: When will the OLEDB driver be available for Reporting Services? In the Marketing Material I noted that Reporting Services can indeed connect to AS/400 through OLEDB. I have tried with all supplied OLEDB drivers and get only errors. The only drivers which work are ODBC and they are dog-slow. I have reviewed most posts on OLEDB drivers for AS/400 or DB2 and most everything points to SSIS. I want to be able to connect to the AS/400 through Reporting Services (SSRS) and report off it via an OLEDB driver instead of ODBC as I am doing it right now. Are there ANY implementable alternatives out there anybody?According to the SQL Server Feature Pack, the Microsoft OLEDB for DB2 driver can be used with Reporting Services.
