Over at RPGVault a summary of information relating to the up and coming expansion for Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn, Throne of Bhaal was posted. The information has been gathered from numerous Throne of Bhaal message boards. Here is a short extract:

"While familiars do have inventory slots like any creature, accessing and manipulating the equipment in those slots is problematic since there's no inventory screen for them. We can't tell a familiar to 'equip' an item. The most we can do is have them give the player what's in their inventory...which we already do for those familiars that pick pockets. Creatures can be instructed to use equipment in their inventory, but only through scripting...the player wouldn't have any control over it (which is not helpful for a familiar). Alternatively, we *could* have equipment that is meant solely for a familiar...in the way that when you 'give' them this piece of equipment, it gives them a new special ability or raises their HP, AC or something similar."
