Access SharePoint Templates from Word 2010
The document “SharePoint 2010 and Office 2010 - Business Productivity at its Best Whitepaper” have a proposals: Access SharePoint Templates Access Office 2010 document templates stored in SharePoint more quickly and easily. People can access document templates stored in SharePoint 2010 via the New Document wizard in Office 2010 applications. But I can’t find any help documents or articles how it works and how to configure it. Could anyone help me?

I think you're overthinking it. Templates can be stored anywhere, it's just a question of "Where is most useful for EVERYONE in your company". You could use a fileshare or you could use a SharePoint Document Library. I don't have Office 2010 on this machine(nor access to SHPT2010), so I can't test, but my theory is you can tell Office 2010 which SharePoint Doc Lib has the templates and this is somehow supposed to be magically faster than a fileshare. Run the "New Document Wizard" to see. Steve Clark, MCTS | Twin-Soft.com

Hi, You can get document templates to show up in a dedicated 'SharePoint templates' area of the 'New' backstage view by one of two ways: Use the Connect to Office > Add to SharePoint Sites in the document library ribbon (for personally selected links) Have the administrator set up a central set of links using the 'Published links to office client applications' option inside the User Profile Service App (for centrally defined links) In both cases, it picks up the templates stored as content types in the linked library, so you will need to make sure your templates are associated as such.
