Asus A7M266 just made it to AMD's official list for recommended motherboards supporting the new 1.33 (at 266) athlon. I have no idea why it took so long to get up there, and i'm curious as to why the A7V133 isn't up there as well. I've heard that A7V133 board should support AMD's processors all the way up to 1.5. Does anyone know if this this is true. Is Asus just late with the necessary bios or are my sources misinformed.

Yes, I noticed too. I also noticed that it took quite some time for ASUS board to be recommended for 266 Mhz processors. Give more time to AMD and you will see the list growing. I also have the impression that AMD does not test all boards. So, there are excellent boards out there right now that support the latest Athlons and are not on AMD's recommended list.
