Install Home Beta via Folding-at-Home exploit

According to this guy (warning: site is advert/banner hell and kills Firefox) enterprising folk have managed to use the Folding@Home exploit to grab v1.00 of Home. Naturally, the whole would explode if people could actually play it, but despite a 200MB download the thing is still locked just now.

Cool find, I suppose, but considering the beta is about to be public, it seems like it might be a pointless attempt.

does anyone know how to get into the home public beta or they not said yet? think i'd rather get it officially way Sony did say they can log you and make methods and ways to ban you.

Wait for the release of the public beta I guess. I saw this but its way too much work to get something you can't use. I am chomping at the bit to try this though, see if it was worth the purchase of the PS3.
