I wish there was a way to downgrade in case of major issue with beta. That way, I'd pay the 100$ yearly and install the beta on my iPhone.
I don't want to install it oj my iPhone I am using personal and business and having bad luck and brick it!

You can downgrade back to iOS 5.1.1. You just need to go into recovery mode and selct the 5.1.1 ipsw that is relevant to the type of iPhone you have.
Is there any way for us non-programmers to get these cool betas?
You have to be a developer. The dev program is $99 a year, if you have that, you can get the betas.

You don't need to go into DFU. Just do a shift+restore from iTunes. No need to go into DFU / recovery.

I explored the code and their is a pretty big and simple exploit for none developers to install iOS 6 beta 1. I am a developer and as a developer I wanted to explore this and I tried it on another device. I was able to install it and update to beta 2 OTA without a registered UUID. I reported it to Apple so I'm going to see if I can update to beta 3 OTA with it again.
I don't see it being illegal for me because I'm a registered developer but if you hadn't, it would be illegal, so I'm not going to share it. If any other developers want to know, pm me.

There already are videos about it, lol.
Yeah that's how I updated to ios 6 beta 1 without UDID. YouTube has many vids about this exploit
Yup

Get a friend who has the beta to at your UDID to their list.
It's been common knowledge since day 1 of beta 1 that all you need to do is click update instead of restore.
I don't know what mysterious "exploit" you claim to have found but it just doesn't get any simpler than that.
wut da hail is a udid dude? Common, speak old dude english.
Unique Device Identifier (each device has a different one)
It was used in apps to track app usage, etc, but Apple stopped that. It's currently being used to determine if you're a dev or not. If it's registered, you're good and can install OS betas, if it's not, you can't bypass the OS setup until your UDID is registered.

Some people are getting errors with that. It's hit or miss.
Siri has worked so much better for me and maps is identical to TomTom which I use for my satnav

if you don't know what a UDID number is you really should be installing iOS 6
