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!

IE is actually not that bad. They should just let you have more than 1 tab open

Very nice topic! (:
Is the Beta still open??


It very well could be if you know where to look. tbh I don't really need the beta due to the fact that in my gaming setup my latop and all in one are within 4 feet of my xbox.

Smurfs I really wanna get the beta.


I actually don't want it xD I've heard from TTG that it is good so I will just look forward to the release :)


It's not really diffrent except for the fact that it has IE.


The appearance is also really different isn't it? Btw... you mis-spelled different ;)


They redesigned it for Xbox, I wouldn't want to see the real IE design on my Xbox anyway.
