Ah, I hadn't realized they'd gotten far enough to package it for
experimental already.

Nonetheless, I'm afraid it's probably going to take a while to see new
NVIDIA packages for the new release.  We currently don't have anything
good in squeeze for any of the legacy packages and the main packages need
an update from what's in unstable now, at least.
