Everyone who signed up last year should
get the key. I didn't sign up, but I used the
beta registration website to make a new
account there. The beta key would be nice,
but I won't count my Pirate hats until they
hatch.

I don't think that's all true there matey. Some people who signed up that long ago still have not got a beta key read some of the post is what I did :).
