Originally a TEST or a TOOL PS3 was required to run the preview version but now it is possible to jailbreak a PS3 with old firmware (1.71 if I remember correct, a fat or a slim, not a superslim) and install Sonys debug firmware (can be downloaded). Then you get the same functionality as a TEST machine and the preview version runs perfectly.
Edit:
Forget 1.71. The downgradability chart is pretty complex. I found a link to it for all fat PS3 revisions:
