I have no idea why you would have gotten invites in the last few days, AFAIK they won't be giving any more out until they open up to the public "interweb".
It could be that you just didn't notice the invitation link, maybe your account was slow to update or maybe they just decided to give a few invites to some random users.
I am "professionaly affiliated" with Google BTW, if you didn't know already.
On the back of a comment I read in here somewhere, where it was suggested that putting your mailbox size up by sending a couple of large attachments would trigger an invite.

I tried it yesterday, and got an invite this morning.. (5MB in my mailbox)

*the invite is already taken by my cousin, I'll post again if I get another

** Just noticed that my second account has an invite too.. the above may have just been coincidence
