Just click the 'MY ACCOUNT' link and create an account. Don't tick the 'no newsletter' box to make sure you'll get the news when the player is out. We'll probably post something here as well when it gets out anyway.
From listening to a lot of Pimsleur I know that, for me, anticipation and correction is one of the most powerful ways to learn a language.
I'm pretty sure that listening to a dialog, trying to work out what is said and being corrected a few seconds later by the actual translation would have an amazing impact on a lot of people (although it might be a bit too hard for beginners.)
