My subscription was disabled immediately after sign up a couple of days ago, but today it's working fine. All keys are visible and downloads are working at the moment..I'm not sure how long it will last.

There's an update on all this at Neowin today, including reports of some UK accounts being reinstated.

Not sure why this is happening, I've tried my old Hotmail address and a new one created through their registration process.

For those of us on the bench, it is a good cheap way to get exposure to some of the newer technologies. Its basically 4 months free training if you have the discipline.
