I think so.  There's some speculation that the large size of the patch is due to additional continents.  We don't know much yet, since our patch notes will be delivered by players who are just getting in-game.

Nothing yet from IGN. Also, I had a dream where they suddenly withdrew from giving keys out for free, saying they were afraid that "people would sign up for free, get the keys, then dump them on the net."

It was a sad dream.

What looks like the founders package.

$39.99 buys;
Immediate;
- 4000 station cash ($40 worth, but sometimes 50% discounted so call it $20), converted to the European equivalent at launch.
- beta access
At launch;
- exclusive matching camo set for armour, vehicle and weapon.
- unique decal
- "founder" title
- six month 10% XP and resource boost implant
- 12 weapon unlocks ("each class and Empire combination")

Also, the 'at launch' is qualified as being, "on or before December 31st 2012."

Cool... except for:

Exclusive permanent camo set...
Are camos going to be temporary normally? Are guns going to be on that godawful rental system that made me stop playing APB? This worries me.

Perhaps you can buy really shitty permanent camos or better ones for money.

I would personally make temporary camo and other purely aesthetic things available as temporary versions (one hour maybe) for Auraxium (I'm thinking two hours worth on average) and then the permanent versions for real money only. It means you can test any visual aspect for free, but only briefly, while guaranteeing them a cash income from people who really care about looks.

It would also be nice if there were events that gave out temporary appearance items as rewards. Your outfit contributes the most to a particular goal, your outfit get a special camo pattern or icon for the week before the event repeats.

So long as the camo doesn't actually work as camo it makes sense to me.

What's your in-game name? :)
Also, there's NOBODY in the EU2-outfit yet, can I get some more names (Especially if my East2 ping is too big, I'll stick with EU).
