Past polls and posts from the community seem to think that this week is the week for blizzard to release the closed beta.
Kinda makes sense,1 week after F&F, now that they fixed some issues maybe they will release it.
I dont know, im not trying to deliver false hopes but I really have a gut feeling that it will be released this week. (Although I think half of the community says that every week )
I hope so but I was just looking around the beta bug forums and there's this Error 24000 that a lot a people are reporting, it could be a lil snag on the servers.

I think Bashiok said they would release it once the "kinks and bugs have been ironed out", I hope it comes out really soon.
So day9 tweeted saying he has a beta key and would be streaming for his daily "100% certain, tomorrow", but he couldn't because of the temp NDA till closed beta release. I'm speculating here but I would say that all the press/media have access to the beta currently but can't share, further evidence would be the lack of Sixen here and Force on YouTube, there has been a slight dip in production.... so my guess is Force is busy at work now preparing heaps of content he will release soon after closed beta start. I hope the poor guy didn't make heaps early on that has become redundant.

I doubt his work would be redundant. Maybe to the hardcore fans who follow every single thread they can find on this forum and others for information (myself included), but I personally know more than a few people who get their Diablo 3 information solely through Diablocasts.

No, press does not have keys, they have said this; press gets it the same time as us.
Yep molsterr is correct, the only reason day9 has a key is because he got invited through FnF. Although he is flagged as press, press and the public will get keys at the same time to play.

Oh! Well that clears that up. I guess thats what happens when you speculate, sometime your just flat out wrong

Closed beta is not open. Force and Sixen are guaranteed a spot as soon as it opens because they're press, but it's not open. Day 9 also got a press invite but ALSO got a friends and family invite, so even though there is no F&F NDA technically, he can't post about it until closed starts and his press invite kicks in.

that seems like an odd double standard, I guess blizz has the F&F NDA because they knew they couldn't keep it under wraps.

Yeah it was very odd overall, and I'd be quite upset if I was a press member right now....
It's not a double standard, but press aren't supposed to get fnf keys since they're press so since he snuck in and got one, they're making sure he doesn't get any 'advantage' over the other press.
Dammit, I totally lost the bet - I had bet on 2nd week (maybe if it starts until tuesday I might still hit it).
