Microsoft Looking for Testers

Today it was announced by Xbox's Larry Hyrb (a.k.a. Major Nelson) that Xbox LIVE! will undergo a testing phase, as he posted on his blog today. Those who participate will be rewarded with Achievement Points as well as some new gear for LIVE! Avatar.

Those who test however, can expect to see some issues with their internet connection as well as the disabling of some of the features of Xbox LIVE! such as movies, music etc. This will take place from 10 March up until 27 March for these 'Network Tests.' So, if you feel like being a lab rat, its open to all Xbox LIVE! members beginning today!
