Also, being at SOE gives the press interview opportunities and the chance to see some stuff not in the beta, like a new continent.
Can't wait!

Yes, i also think this will be a small Press MEdia only Beta to let them write some hands on Previews before the massis of closed Beta Testers rush in one week later. Anyway it will all start this month *wohoo*
