Hi,
I haven't actually thought about support for those - the nrf24 was a bit of a let-down (it works well enough, but the range of the standard modules is too low to extend over the whole house). I think it's more of an issue with the 2.4ghz band, so I think the lower frequencies are probably more interesting.
But if you wanted to do it yourself it shouldn't be too bad. You'd want to look at the datasheet (and maybe the existing arduino code for it - although that looks a bit dodgy). I guess first steps would be to wire it up and then see if you can use SPI commands in the left-hand pane of the Web IDE to read and write registers on the chip. Once that's done it's just a matter of doing what the datasheet says - writing values to registers in the right order to get it to transmit and receive.
If you could find a simple arduino project that did TX and RX then you could set up an Arduino to test with. It's always frustrating trying to debug something when you don't know whether it's the TX or RX side that's not working!
