neato, but I probably won't try it. I'll wait till it comes out.

There is another way now! All you have to do is download the Home theme from the PSN store and keep playing online games. The more you play online multiplayer games (warhawk, MGO) the more your eligible to get in the closed beta of home.

*Rumor* You must have the theme selected to be more eligible.
