As we inch ever closer to the release of PlayStation Home 1.0, Home Beta Trial SCEE Community Manager 'TedTheDog' has made an announcement on the official Home Beta forum stating that Home Beta v0.96.3 will be hitting this Thursday.
"It's looking like the new version, 0.96.3 will be released this week, probably Thursday July 31st and the migration of all existing users will take place then," he wrote. "New testers will not be invited in until it's been in your hands to see what you think. We will probably run an EU test night on Thursday evening but I'll confirm that later on today or tomorrow."
According to 'TedTheDog,' the new version will not be made available as a patch, but rather as an email with a specific code redeemable via Account Management in the XMB. Also, version 0.96.3 will not feature anything new but "bug fixes and a move on the XMB."
Stay tuned for more information on Home.

So much for the NDA we all signed.... And, no, this doesn't mean everyone will have access. They will admit more members, but not on a widespread scale.

Whattt! They letting some first time gamers do the bete. I've been playing playstation since day one. They could have holla at me to see what really needs to be done. Most of the people they got only had the ps3. That sucks. Let a player in Sony TedTheDog.

@ Yuk-Yuk
You are truely not missing anything. Home is not some revolutionary program that will cook, clean and do your homework. Its a simple customizable 3d chat room with some mini games, nothing more. You get pretty much the same with Lively, Second Life, and many other similar applications. Though I have to admit, having it built into the PS3 is pretty nice.
I am a Sony fan to the core, dont get me wrong, but everyone who doesnt have Home seems to think its the greatest thing since electricity. With such high expectations you will be sorely disapointed.
