To register an intrest means to show that you want to take part in this. I guess once you show your intrest, Sony would handpick them. How? Maybe at random.

Maybe theyll do it by Folding at home work units sent in, dont think so because how would they keep count with a million users who go by PS3. BTW, the October price cut now seems more likely because that is when the service will go live so it could act as a gimmick.
