Starting today, owners of the pricey PlayStation 3 — there are nearly 17 million of them worldwide, a scant 200,000 of whom live in the U.S. — can download the software for free via Sony's PlayStation Network, which connects the game consoles on the Net so users can play each other. Sony is calling the roll-out a 'beta,' meaning Home is still being crash tested, so buyer beware. That said, this is a pretty stable environment, and I think referring to it as a beta test is a little disingenuous. (source: time.com)
