Maybe they just got a new server for the Battle.net account management section and they tricked us into thinking there was a beta! We are testing the new server with our own F5 buttons!
So, I'll cautiously provide a little insight in the hopes it doesn't make you sad.

Are the invites done today?
This is something we aren't likely to answer during the beta test. Ever. I know everyone's aching for a piece of the Diablo III action, but the testing process won't be well served if the forums are flooded daily with questions about beta invite waves. There is no predetermined schedule for the rate at which players get invited to test the game.
The Blizzard folk who are monitoring the concurrency trend of people online and playing, as well as the stability of the game servers, will do waves of invites as needed. When I say "as needed," I mean when the servers are stable and we're comfortable with the room we have to get more people in the game. We won't do waves of invites if we feel our infrastructure at any given time can't handle an increased concurrency.
Beyond that, there's really only an extra morsel of information -- small though it may be -- I can provide as to when invites might go out. They'll go out, as I said before, when we're comfortable with increasing concurrent players online. And they'll typically go out during standard business hours (9 a.m. - 6 p.m. Monday - Friday, North American Pacific time).
For those who make it in, I really hope you enjoy it as much as I do. We look forward to hearing your feedback. For those who don't make it in quickly, stay tuned for more information on other giveaways and promotions. Just try not to drive yourself crazy waiting to get in. Ultimately, this is just a test of a very small portion of the game to prepare us for the official launch, when everyone can play the full game!
One last thing:
WTB Blue Post
Threads shouldn't be directed at Blizzard employees. We frown upon it. The forums should be a place where players can discuss topics with one another, and sometimes with Blizzard employees. We don't want forum threads created, directed at us, just to get our attention. It disrupts the flow of the forums. I know it seems ironic this thread got my attention and I've responded, but I'm only doing so in the hopes we don't see a repeat of this thread tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day, and...
Wow you spammed old info in three different threads. Congrats. The best part is that quote barely actually says anything concrete at all, other than that their servers can handle at least about 100 people.
Edit: In fact it's posted on the 2nd page of this thread.

It clearly says that they will invite more people, in regular working hours of PST, once the servers are stable enough to do so, until then. Just wait.
There is a million posts around here asking this information, yet not one seem to be able to read, or comprehend what they actually said.
Stop asking questions and do some homework for yourselfs and I wouldnt have to teach you all where the information is.
This discussion is meant for people who got into the beta to post here so we can have confirmation that some e-mails are going out. I enjoy the excitement of seeing lots of people getting invited etc. We are waiting, specifically for invites to start going out, hence this thread. It actually even says that in the title..
You're basically telling people not to do exactly what the title of the thread implies, which is talk about whether or not people have been invited since that post (that you quoted and everyone here already knows about) was made. It has been past 9AM PST for 6 hours now.

Just look back one page, you have muliple people asking when the invites are going out.
I posted information that tells them that Blizzard is obviously stabilizing the server, not trolling you like many people are saying.
I understand what this topic is about. I dont think the people a page back who are getting pissed off do though.
You dont understand. This topic is about first people getting invited to beta so we know that keys actually started going out. Thing you quote is completely irrelevant
Actually no one asked when invites are going out. A few people asked if anyone had been invited since the initial press wave of invites, or if there was any news of a new wave of invites today. You're awfully hostile.
i dreamed about aliens. seriously. those grey ones with big eyes.and the funny thing was i was trying to wake up from a dream in a dream. no shitting now, srsly am not trolling. it was like inception but with aliens.
now when i think about it, there could be a chance it wasnt a dream. hmm
I hope both You and I get a beta key... But I think living in Australia might be against me getting one sooner... maybe..

May the heroes rise from the pit of despair and the bards sing of the day of death renewed to everlasting immortality....awaiting your return to the lands of Sanctuary may peace be with you on this day...your day of birth.
You guys know it's like months till release, right? I mean, the beta just technically started. They might keep those first measly 100 invites as the only active ones for a week, then add another 100 before they start really upping the numbers. I just don't want to see any wasteful injuries of your precious F5 fingers @.@

But my quote clearly points out that Blizzard is stabilizing the servers and monitoring them until the are ready to handle more invites.
I really cant make it more clear.
