I'm not as cynical as Oru that public release could cause a lack of really large population servers becoming available. Hopefully competition will give the players some interesting choices as far as game content goes, and people will also naturally tend to vote for the best managed servers with their feet. So both quality and populations should be high.
Also, Sony at one time had something like twenty+ SWG servers filled up. And I see only about five or six emulator server sites right now looking like they might be serious players (and that's including SWGemu itself). So what happens if all the old style mmorpg players - sick to death of the pedestrian swill that's now being tossed on the market - decide to make a better choice?
I'm not saying it could be WoW type numbers, but I wouldn't think the numbers that used to play Sony's old SWG itself (300,000 - 400,000 accounts) is totally out of the question either.
