When Will Sony's 'Home' Come Out of Beta?

Background: Home has officialy gone live, but there are still a few questions to be asked. For example, if this is a beta, when is the full launch?

According to a Sony Computer Entertainment of America spokesperson, the answer to the first question is that it's classified as a beta because "it is a continuously evolving service." He pointed toward areas being added and removed according to user feedback, such as how popular it is and other factors. And the full launch?

The spokesperson said "that will depend on where Home stands at the time."

Nice question. I got the service when it was closed beta, and it definitely will be complete soon.
