Hey, id like to inform u bout the home beta ( if u didnt knew already ).... When u download the Home Theme from the US shop, u will automatically qualify for the beta. In europe its a bit different, Sony will send the most active Users an email about it, so if u wanna participate be active :d

Can you define active? Like people who use thier Playstations the most? Or buy the most from the store or what?

People who use their Ps3 very often.

Just turn on ur PS3 and let it run 20h a day.... i think that should do. Also i think theres a limit for the beta testers, so even if u turn on ur PS3 for 20h / day now they still could take others who do the same.

Sony has send the first mails to europeans, so if ur often online with ur PS3, check ur mails, maybe u received an home beta mail now.

Well thats good news, Ill give it a go, but Im not that interested truth be told, I currently dont have any friends on the PSN and I dont really want any.

Im not into multi-player gaming, single-player is the way for me.

Im unsure about it but I do want it to prove me wrong.

For most people I think the main concern is how much HDD space it will take.
Im ok now as I have a 160GB HDD with 101GB left. I cant see how the 40GB will cut it TBH I think some peoples 60GB versions may strugle with all the game instalations and downloads.

I know a 80GB version is coming but its still no consolation to 40GB owners who dont know they can change HDD or how to do it.
