Star Trek Online closed beta starts

Not without its share of drama. Pre-order Champions Online customers selecting either 6 month or lifetime subscription were promised access to Star Trek Online closed beta. Apparently a rep. posted that they would get first priority when beta started. Now it seems it was wrong info and that they were just guaranteed 'eventual access' and the forums are ablaze.
Well, in any case, you can still apply here if interested: http://www.startrekonline.com/preview_application
Live long, and prosper!

On the forum there is this official statement:

OPEN BETA WILL BE FROM JANUARY 12 to JANUARY 26, 2010!!!

Oh, my. I guess I'm late for beta. Does anyone know the official release date?

Errr, it's been out for weeks. Reviews are... underwhelming.

I think I can give you a 5 day trial key if you want one.

That would be awesome, thanks!!!

Star Trek Infinite Space qould also be a great online game I think.
Anybody heard something about Battlestar Galactica Online?
