Over to you - iPlayer launches

Right folks, today is the day that the BBC's 7-day catch-up service, the iPlayer, goes into extended beta testing. Sign up for it and let us know what you think.

The iPlayer lets you find and download all your favourite BBC TV programmes shown in the last 7 days, from BBC One through to BBC Four. After downloading a programme, you have up to thirty days to watch it.

We’ve been raving (and occasionally ranting) about the iPlayer for months, but now it is finally your chance to tell us what you think about it.

Here at Access 2.0, we are of course, happy to have feedback from everyone, because it is a blog about being inclusive after all. But we are most interested in hearing from you if you have access issues, and how easy or difficult you find the iPlayer to install and use. Is it smooth sailing when setting up the iPlayer with your screen reader? Can you find the content you want with your magnifier? Can you change the look of the iPlayer so that it is easy to read?

Email us here at access 2.0, and we’ll put together a blog about what you all make of it.

Iplayer looks really good, how long do I have to wait after registration? Been registered or applied for registration several days ago. Unusually for the BBC site there is no information on how long registration takes or news on any problems or over subscription etc....

I've tried and tried to get registered, but have yet to receive an email even acknowledging that I can't take place in the trial. It is a bizzare way of running a trial.
