The major difference between a normal preview account and a sandbox account is that the former is for a general user while the latter is for a developer. There are additional options available for the sandbox account. Google Wave being open source, developers can contribute their work and general users with preview account can enjoy Waving... :)

Actually the process of getting a sandbox access is different than one for getting a preview account. For the sandbox account Google has provided a process which is indeed for a developer (including couple of questions, etc)

In case of normal preview accounts, Google had limited the number initially. Also the ones who got their ID when it was launched, could invite their colleagues (about 25). Now, some days later these invited users can in turn invite their colleagues... and so on. To get a preview account at present, just search for one who can send you a Wave invitation.

Till now the process is going this way. As time passes Google might make a provision for direct Sign Up for a wave ID.

Enjoy Waving..!!

On a related issue, I'm confused about what is supposed
to work where.

I don't have sandbox access yet and I can get a number of
gadgets working on the preview but no robots. I was assuming
that the robots only work in the sandbox for the moment, right?
Also, if a gadget doesn't work in the preview I'm assuming
it's not in sync with the preview api version and could be using
either a too new version or an obsolete version, yes?

Or am I just doing something horribly wrong?
in particular the imdb gadget works for me, but not the robot
and the colorizer bot doesn't work all on preview.

Some commentary in the faq and on the demos pages
about where what is expected to work might help.

I take it back, sorry. I just got syntaxy to work.
I'll try to shut up for a while until I get my bearings a bit better.

@Aaron :
I would add something to your assumption.

Robots are nothing but servlets running on AppEngine. Their working is not limited to sandbox. These robots have a specific function for handling the wave. As we know, the robot is a participant of the wave as we are and therefore can perform various operations on the wave which a gadget cannot.
Google has provided the sandbox account for debugging the robots and it also provides some more developer tools therein. The robot also works fine with the preview account.

I suggest you a simple testing trick. As you

I do not know much more about the gadget stuff. Even I'm working on a robot and previously had the same assumption as yours. You will get to know lot many things as you move on..
Enjoy waving!!

@Aaron : As you improve your robot. You can add the things you want to see as a blip in the wavelet itself. This will make your work a bit easy. Its a traditional debugging method but works fine.
