Alienware has partnered with Cryptic Studios to create an interesting promotion designed to draw you back to Star Trek Online. The newly free-to-play sci-fi title is the focus of an item giveaway that features 10 days of subscription time, a 22nd century Enterprise-era uniform, an NX class starship, and an 8-hour XP boost.
What's the catch? Well, the deal is restricted to new accounts only and it also requires you to sign up on the Alienware Arena website. Once you've met those requirements, it's as easy as clicking on the big blue "get key" button and copy/pasting the digits to your Cryptic or Perfect World account.
As of press time, over 2,200 keys were still available.

Is the NX class one of the cash shop ships?

Lame, I'd like to keep it, or at least keep it's skin and the bridge appearance. Next to DS9's Defiant, this was my favorite ship in the series.

@Vic Fontaine Oh I know what it is. But I'm sure there are plenty who don't.

Well I for one joined up when the game went F2P but work has been killer so I've barely leveled my character at all. I'll just start a new account with this key. Thank's for the timely post Jef, your speed puts Joystiq to shame

It's "old" promotion - I have got this STO code from Alineware like 6 months ago! (seemed nobody was interested coz I remember plenty keys were still available!)
I used it just before Xmas, and I really enjoyed all these "extra bonuses" like ship or costume :)
