Display Driver Problem on MacBook Retina, Windows 8 Release

I'm running the new macbook retina with the NVidia 650M chipset. When I install the release version of windows 8 (august 15th, 2012) I get the "basic display driver" from Microsoft and the best resolution I see is 2048x1500.

Is there some way to get vmware to use the higher resolutions of the retina display?

Much better 10.8 and Retina support.
