yep speeder is a pre order thing that is only happening in the us for some reason all i'll say is i'd rather have a swoop than the speder.

Since the speeder technically isn't a beta item can you give us some info on it? How does it compare in speed to the other speeders out there? How is the durability? All I have heard are rumors about this so any info would be awesome.

It decays like an x-34, and it's not fast compared to a swoop, but the speed is pretty consistent in water, up hills and flat land.

I just got my JTL preorder bonus, the naboo speeder, after logging into the TC-Bria beta server. However, it does not exist on my character on the live Bria server. Will this item transfer to my character on the live server after the beta is over and the game is released?
P.S. The same thing is happening with a painting of an imperial star destroyer, the reward granted in celebration of the one year anniversary of SWG.
you shouldnt be talkign about beta

To Amwoza The JTL paintings we all recieved for 1 yr of this went to chars a yr or lder,
so I am taking a stab that your TC toon earned it by age (even if you never played him just left him to sit), and your actual 'live' toon was created afterwords.
I myself have paintings in all my testcenter houseing from 1yr reward, and only 2 in 'live' ( with 10 or so toons running around)
Since I left my TCtoons alive to age, and constantly was deleteing and creating new 'live' ones to play.

Nope. The flash speeder is a gift you get for ordering JTL early. The beta invite included in the preorder boxis also a gift by ordering early. Some of us in beta got an invite due to various reasons, but if they haven't preodered JTL from Gamestop or EB, they ain't gonna get no speeder!
Indeed, you could have preordered JTL, never installed or played the beta disk, and still get your flash speeder at launch.
So, in summary:
Beta Testers -

So, in summary:
Beta Testers -
Got primary beta invite (started in beta earlier than everyone else)
No other bonuses or gifts
Did not preorder JTL. will purchase at release, and hope it isn't sold out.
Preorder JTL box and CD -
Got another chance at a beta invite (for those who were passed up before...)
Gets a flash speeder for preordering as a thanks
Will have a JTL saved for them on hold from GS or EB
Hope this helps
