The next Xbox Dashboard update with internet explorer beta testing opens

4.3
You probably want to be one of the first people to explore the internet on your Xbox 360, right? Well, Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb just posted up instructions for how to be that dude – all you have to do is sign up for the upcoming Xbox Live Dashboard update beta.

Beyond the opportunity to explore the internet from the comfort of your couch, you'll also get "personalized dashboard recommendations" (whatever that means), and "enhanced category search and discovery features."

Like with so many betas, participants won't be able to write about their experience or take pictures or anything like that until the required non-disclosure agreement expires. But hey, you'll be part of a super secret club, so there's something.

Update: Looks like the beta's full up, y'all. Congrats to those who got in!

Prefire looks good!


It does look good indeed :) I don't know why people don't like it.


it runs good but there is no flash player installed so if for some reason you do not have netflix and would like to watch something you cannot,


Im sure they will add flash player later, hopefully Lol :P

Be cool if we could go on any website instead of just searching the marketplace.
