Microsoft opens up more places on Xbox LIVE Update beta
The platform holder has re-opened the application page for entry into the beta, but numbers will still be limited so don't hang around.
The beta first opened up in July when MS took in the first round of volunteers to test out a pre-release version of the new dashboard features set for arrival later this year.
The beta includes an early look at:
- Internet Explorer for Xbox
- Recommendations and ratings
- Pinning and favorites
- Enhanced category search and discovery features
- Voice search (in specified markets)
Note: MS warns of heavy traffic on the application site causing issues with the submission process - be patient and keep trying.

iOrrange if i get it on my flashed xobx will it mess it up?
I'd assume not. A flashed Xbox still runs on stock firmware so you should be perfectly fine.

So how is this a "closed" beta exactly? They keep reopening it like no other. Lol. They better put some sort of flash or java in the final release of IE. It seems so primitive at the moment. Pretty much useless when you can't even watch a video on YouTube. The current YouTube app on the 360 sucks in my opinion. It's so awkward to navigate and is really slow. And no it's not my internet. Any video buffers effortlessly on PC but on the 360 it takes ages and the quality is horrendous. They better make some major changes and soon.
