Yeah that link gives this:


Hello! Before you can sign in and download Joost, you need an invitation from another user.
If you've already received yours, please sign in to download the Joost software and start watching TV. If you haven't yet received an invite, see the section below for hints on how to get one.

OK boyo...apparantly ...

How do I invite people?

Invitations are sent using the Invite Friends widget, as follows. Start Joost, click on My Joost and you will see the widget. Make sure that you have not run out of invitations, and then fill in your friend's contact details. They will then receive their invitation by email, including full instructions on how to install and register.

PM me your email and I will try and find the widget...:thumbsup:
