PS3 Home Beta Checker V1.3.1

As we all anxiously await the arrival of Sony’s 3D networked community, Home™; resident PS3 hacks forum member, Sir Chase Lambeth, has alleviated the constant hassle in manually refreshing the Home Beta Trial page. When that text (”Keep checking back on this site to register an interest in taking part in an exclusive closed Beta Trial of Home”) is replaced with a sign-up link, you will receive immediate notification, and all thanks to Chase, you’ll most likely end up the coolest kid on your block.

In order to take advantage of this app, Internet Explorer 6 is required. Please report any errors/bugs, feedback, ideas, or questions in the comments below.

While Home Beta Checker seems to execute fine under Vista and IE7, I’ve only noticed one problem — you cannot reopen the interface after minimizing to the system tray. Nevermind, this is native behaviour… Home Beta Checker functions fine under Vista/IE7 and XP/IE6.

For those that use firefox there's a plugin to do this checking. It's called, "page update checker" https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/920
