In case anyone is lucky enough to be planning a spectator trip,
tickets for Beijing 2008 are now on sale.
I haven't yet spotted a schedule and price list in English but would imagine that one will appear soon.

its not really on sale from the looks of it you apply and ballot will decide who gets to buy the tickets(thats if applicants number more than available seats).
but i guess most of us can forget about it. only those living in china are eligible(not even those in hong kong and macau can apply). it further adds that those outside of china should inquire about ticketing from you own local Olympic council(? not sure if council is the right word)
if you want to move to china to join in the balloting you better start planning soon. the application period ends in june.
