Thanks for that link, but looking at these I can't figure out what most of them are for :?

I don't think there is any off the shelf stuff made for the size of plywood.. Most of the stuff I have seen is designed for thin materials like bathtub surrounds or FRP panels..
You might be able to find some aluminum carpet edge trim to cover the seams but you would have to use screws to hold it in place.
Alternately you could take a look at vinyl siding "J" channel trim (J channel back to back would give you the effect of covering both plywood edges) or any other vinyl siding trim pieces and creatively "adapt" those to your usage..
