As the tittle implies, what happens when the ios7 beta 1 expires if I am not a registered developer. in My case I am an aspiring dev that joined forces with a couple of friends to form a small dev team, however only one of us (we are 3, again small team) is registered.

I installed beta 1 on my main ipod (left the iphone and ipad alone) without the "proper" procedure, so what will happen to it should I not install beta 2?

That´s what I am afraid of, Im basically a beginner with advanced (not expert) programming skills and have no idea yet of apple´s policies, can I use the registered account we will be using to publish our apps on my ipod to get beta 2 and stop worrying about expiration? or do I need to register individually?

I believe you can put your phone into DFU mode and restore to iOS 6
 
If it becomes a "paperweight", send it to me, and I'll "somehow manage" to make it into a pretty paperweight that can run apps and watch videos... etc... :p :p
 
Thank you all for the very useful info, Ill take this info to the guys so we all have properly running betas, again from a team of beginer devs thank you
