Do not see any download links for 32 or 64 bit version MC v3.0 BETA 1337.
Check for updates in previous 1335 version reported "No new version is found!"

This is a public beta and is available the normal way. So the update program will find it if the download beta option is checked.

See : How to get beta

Autoupdate works bad.

After first run of update, we see that there is Release v3.0 BETA (Build 1337) (9-Feb-2013)
but Multi Update says:
Checking if newer version exists.
Version information received.
Current installed version is 2.8.2.1291
No update of Multi Commander available.

Only after second run of update we can install current version.

When MC launches the update it tells it to check beta but since it is restarted again because it downloads a newer version that option is lost.
It is possible to set that setting in the MultiUpdate settings.
