I am really disappointed that Amazon has not yet extended more invitations into SimpleDB closed beta or opened it up yet. I'm interested in utilizing it for my startup but I guess I'll just have to wait..

Make sure you are signed up with payment details for S3 or EC2 and you should get an invitation very quickly.

yeah I got it fairly quickly because I am using the other services.

"payment details"

i am a paying customer of s3 and ec2. are you suggesting i should have a simpleDB account?

Make sure you follow the rules for getting into the Beta program. I got in very quickly.
