Ouch: I think that only meant that all FFXIV account holders will have beta access for the PC starting in phase 3; that does not exclude invitations to select non-Legacy members, which is what the whole application process was for. If your interpretation was accurate, then there would have been no need for the application website outside of the PS3 version.

Like ThePheonix said, that only grants you a priority position for the PS3 beta version, which starts in phase 3. If you wanted access to the PC beta version starting in phase 1, you would need to apply for it (unless your account has Legacy status).
