Not be that I want to be Captain bring down but if you may want to dive into Home with cautious optimism. Why do I say this? I think that some PS3 owners have big expectations on Home and some may even have false expectation of grandeur. I even paid for Qore to get in the Beta and that did not happened but the I eventually got an invite through downloading the Home theme. When I got it I was excited then its quickly became hmm..cool. Don't get me wrong. Home is in fact cool and I love playing bowling and pool. Loved talking to random PS3 users. In fact I have added a few to my friends list. For now for me its an okay experience and I hope that soon it will be a great experience every time I log in.

Very true, a lot people walk into the beta thinking its going to be this utopia of fun, only to be disappointed and then come and complain about home on various gaming forums. It is still very cool but it isn't a game, and its still barely at its foundations waiting for additions.

Also has anyone seen any info about additions to the beta once it goes open? New areas etc?

I think I read somewhere about some rumored new areas soon to be released.. Not sure if it's true though, and I can't seem to remember where I read it at.. Oh well, guess I'll have to do some searching. =)

It will be available sometime during this evening. Here are some additional spaces pics along with a free game based on Red Bull's Air Race World Championship (sorry for the pic sizes don't have time to resize)

Its not a game and its alreaddy intergrated into the firmware, you only have to update it as soon as sony opens the doors this evening.
