Open beta (aka 'free trial') game client is released this week in preparation for the open beta from 6th-13th this month. :)

Details here:
http://na.aiononline.com/en/news/open-beta-client-now-available-for-download.html

Get it via HTTP:
http://www.fileplanet.com/201991/200000/fileinfo/Aion-Game-Client
http://www.gamershell.com/pc/aion_the_tower_of_eternity/

Or via Torrent:
ftp://ftp.ncsoft.com/Aion/Client/Torrent/AionFullInstaller_1.5.0.1.zip.torrent

Or install NCSoft's official launcher and download the client from there:
ftp://ftp.ncsoft.com/Launcher/NCsoftLauncherSetup.exe

If you already have the Closed Beta/Full game installed via the updater you won't need the full installer, and the updater can take care of the patching.  Or if you prefer, there's a torrent to patch it too (which might be quicker than the updater):
ftp://ftp.ncsoft.com/Aion/Client/Torrent/Aion_CBT_OBT_installer.zip.torrent

QuoteAs added extra spice, FilePlanet will--in addition to distributing the client--be giving away a load of open beta keys starting on Tuesday, September 1, 2009. Get on the starting line if you do not have an eligible Aion account already! Eligible accounts include any previous closed beta participants and those who have preordered or prepurchased Aion.

Remember to update your Aion game password if your Aion account was created prior to July 29, 2009.

I got the whole thing through NCSoft's updater.  It was reasonably fast as I recall, but it was still an overnight job.  If you like you could try the updater and see if it's faster (it's also handy to keep up with patches later too, though I imagine the installer probably installs it anyway):
ftp://ftp.ncsoft.com/Launcher/NCsoftLauncherSetup.exe

Don't forget to get your open beta key too if you need one! :flirty:

I tryed another "Torrent" and they do download.
Will check again when I'm at home if it gets downloaded or not.
Otherwise I might have to wait a week for the Gamershell one.
