I doubt they will run out of keys in a hour or 2.

Probly be a few days since they gave fileplanet only a small % and they have over 100k downloads for it.

So is the same birdy that tells you to kill people and touch yourself. :D

Though I can speak for myself and say for the love of god start the open beta!! :p

i read on the BNET forums that blizz had 2x the keys that FP had

i do not know if that is the keys just from the ST or the fileplanet ST + fileplanet OB keys

at any rate i would expect blizz to have at minimun of 300,000 keys to give out so there should be plenty

if they hit 1,000,000 for the U.S. open beta that would be insane that would have to be some sort of record

Free Open Beta Has Begun - Helcon on 11/08/04
Blizzard Entertainment is proud to announce that the free open beta has begun. In preparation for the launch of World of Warcraft, we are now introducing the most complete version of the game, including a new patch with extensive content, including racial traits, raids, Hunter and Paladin talents, new quests for high-end zones, and much more. We need your help for a final, massive test of our infrastructure, account creation, and the game itself. So we are now opening up the testing phase to the entire Internet-ready public of North America, Australia, and New Zealand. So if you aren't already playing World of Warcraft, sign up for the open beta now and begin your adventures in Azeroth!
An initial run of open beta accounts is now available from FilePlanet, so please visit www.fileplanet.com to grab your open beta key. Please note that there is no fee whatsoever for the open beta; the open beta is absolutely free. Unlike with the final stress test, you do not have to be a FilePlanet subscriber to participate in the open beta.

If you want to learn more about the open beta test, please read our Open Beta FAQ. The open beta slots are available on a first come, first served basis, so hurry to FilePlanet and grab your key as soon as you can. We hope to see you in Azeroth soon.

It has the key when you finally get to the right site.

Servers are getting beaten atm so will take awhile and lots of error pages.
