I just checked the alpha thingy, and it has this..


Beta Tester Applications
- Details for the Beta Test will be announced at a later date.
- The PlayStation 3 Beta Test will start in conjunction with the PC Beta Test.
- Testers that participated in the Alpha Test do not need to resubmit an application during beta tester recruitment.
* A new round of tester selection will be held for the Beta Test. Participation in the Alpha Test does not guarantee selection for the Beta Test.
* New applications are required for alpha testers who wish to take part in the PlayStation 3 Beta Test.


So now I feel silly. Oh well.
