Yep, for latency it's usually environmental factors. But again, they need to make certain you're using a decent broadband speed.
However, they might be keeping most of the game content server-side - since there's no single player they don't necessarily need to do otherwise. If that's the case, then bandwidth certainly plays a large roll.
Another reason they'd have thought of this is so they can do a more thorough testing job, making sure the game does run properly on a wide variety of connction speeds.
I hope it not going to be like that would suck allot to play diablo 3 you need to use allot of your bandwidth like i life in south-Africa and i don't have unlimited internet
Change the region before downloading the tool. Bottom right on your account management you can change it to "English (US)". Do it, download the tool, change it to your normal region and use the tool.
Not to hijack but I noticed that my profile shows the used/free space of my storage drive and not my C: drive. And I guess I need to double check my region!
I have two computers that I use on a regular basis. I have my old gaming desktop which will be used to run Diablo. I also have my brand new laptop which will not be used for gaming. Which of these do you think will give me a better chance of getting the beta test?

Holy crap, you have a 500W HEATER in your computer... but since that computer is most likely self built I assume you know that already. Anyways, I would put the laptop in.
