They're 20-oddk each - I have about 5k in my bank
Everyone gets just one, already gave mine out - if any current player wants to give their 5 day trial key to someone go and claim it here
My verdict is it's fun for the free month but pretty much a forgettable experience.

I've just got to admiral, well im actually admiral 2, but i have no missions, no patrols, just PvP and repeatables, i know theres the borg missions to do but how the hell do i get there, or how do i find more missions or patrols or just anything different from repeatable exploration and defend stuff 
I've got a Star Cruiser and an Fleet Escort, i cant decide which i like best, the escort eats ships shields and hull with good power consoles and and plenty of cannons but the Cruiser looks amazing is still strong and can withstand an amazing amount of punishment... which do you guys prefer?

Please excuse any apparently insane movement in the Fleet Bank - I took out some kit to upgrade my new ship tonight, then thought I should put the stuff I replaced in the bank for someone else, then realised it was in the wrong slot, so I took it out again, then the correct slot didn't have the space for me to put it in. It all looks a bit demented 
You have to be RA3 to use it - RA2 to RA3 is grinding space battles or exploration...been there, and not going back to it

There is a patch coming today, no idea what it includes mind you. 
There is a patch coming today, no idea what it includes mind you.
Sadly its only more bug fixes (and in typical Cryptic style, more bugs)
The much delayed new content is apparantly going to the new public test server first (god knows when)
^ at least its an update none the less!
This is what's coming apparently
Some of the few things on the way:
* Respec
* Death Penalty
* Difficulty Slider
* More open auto-fire
* Replayable missions
* Improving Memory Alpha
* Fixing those Commodity missions
Release Notes - Feb 26, 2010
Items
* Very Rare and Omega items may now be equipped on your Bridge Officers. Note that these items do not display on costumes yet. Costume designs for this gear will be addressed in a future update.
* Impulse Engines with Full Enhancements now properly provided a bonus to Full Impulse speed.
* Fixed Red Matter Capacitor so that it is functional and can be equipped on the power bar. Multiples will not stack.
* Mk-X Deflectors now allow full use of all Deflector related powers.
* Clarified tooltips for Torpedoes to show they disable and kill a target percent or an absolute amount of crew - whichever is less.
* The Best Buy special promotion Tribble is now appropriately displayed as a Rare item.
* Addressed an issue where some Grenades were not displaying visual FX when thrown.
* Anti-Proton Dual Beams now use Anti-Proton stats and not Phaser stats.
Graphics
* We removed the old driver warning on the 191-195 line of NVidia drivers that some players were receiving since newer drivers are not yet available for some configurations.
* Game Cursor rendering is no longer reliant on the GPU which should resolve issues with cursors disappearing on SLI configurations.
Combat
* Some larger enemy ships were not damaging player crew, and some smaller ships were damaging too many. This is now fixed.
Environment
* Fixed an issue where some players were unable to enter the Cernan system
* Added the ability to use the Depart System (minimap button) from Sol System and Earth Space Dock.
UI
* Added more localized text that was missing from the Tutorial and Character Creation.
* Updated the Galaxy map to make locations more accurate, fix typos, and add future game play locations.
* Addressed an issue where ranking up bridge officers would unexpectedly add additional ranks.
Audio
* Congratulations Lieutenant! Voice Over narration from Leonard Nimoy should now play more reliably when you level up in space.
* Added the missing audio for Tractor Beam Repel.
* Revised the audio for science (medical) team.
Misc.
* Fixed an assert with character copy.
* Fixed a memory leak in character transfer.
* Updated character copy so that the web flow does not wait on a response and cause a bottleneck.
* Ensured that unique special items are being checked properly to prevent players from equipping multiple copies of unique items.

Just go with whatever you enjoy. All classes work just as well.
