Rumour has it a beta version will be released no charge [save perhaps shipping the DVD] to the public within a month or so. Right now, though, its either through some testing program or through an MSDN sub$cription.

Links and information about getting the public beta when it's ready.

Go to the MSDN subscriber download site to read what you're entitled to.
