WOW, look at the money going for mobi names. More and more selling everyday and for good money. What a time for domain speculators and web polluters.
I am kinda confused how or why people think this names will be worth anything after this initial bubble of sales pops?
Have any of yall ever used your phone for the internet? I have a nokia 7710 and can access the full net with any domain and dont need a special tld to allow me to use it. HMM, last time I checked cell phones get more advanced, not less so why would anyone think there needs to be special domain for that.
HMM, could it be the seach companies who want you to use there engine, the ones behind .mobi? I use google.com/pda for search and last week they just started showing ads. There is even a mobile web button to search with, I wonder why?? DOES google own part of mobi, naw thats not it. All new tlds sell for outragous amounts when they 1st come out dont they?? NOPE, just ones with search engines and large corps behind them.
What about browser detection??? Is that something that doesnt work anymore? You type in www.freeredboxcodes.com in the box on your phone and wow it detects what browser your on and directs you to www.freeredboxcodes.com/mobile which has removed all the pop ups and bs and gives the content the user wanted.
Has anyone read what the requirements are to develop the actual site code?

UM, the purpose is to provide quick and concise info on screen so small that there is to be limited graphics and limited number of links. SO you want to pay big money for a name that wont have ads because there isnt room to view them. Now dont get me wrong, I am in no way mad at the people selling these names for big money. I would do the same. But to think that these will be worth a lot is insane. I see all these names and typos being bought and sold and I really dont think that they understand how a phone internet user uses the net.
How many are going to pay 60.00 a month to get high speed access? I dont think many and those that do already are using good web capable phones, ie Treo or other smartphone. Ok so they are using the GPRS or whatever mode offered which is equal to dial up. How many of you surf the net on dial up?? Wont happen. You would look up the ONE bit of info you needed and get offline.
When exactly are you going to use your phone to surf the net? As you drive, at your desk, in the car ride home?? The net on your phone is a standby luxury that I can use to look up movies or the spur of the monent trivia answer at the dinner table.
I dont think that the implentation will be effective to anyone but the resellers of the names and the mobi'esqe info. How many people are going to surf smurfs.mobi as they drive because they have that instant need to learn the names of Gargamels cat. The names with the direct names might work, phonebook, movies, info, stuff like that. OH wait when I had horrible nextel they had mobile net and I could selct from a menu numbered 1-10 with the same headings. It would give me local info and as slow and as bad as it looked it worked for that spur of the monent need for information.
My one .mobi is adultclips.mobi and well there is nothing up yet. Since the only thing the net is good for is porn, there is no reason not to think that the phone will be used to get that also. I tried to find the line up for the 1986 Houston Rockets and searched everyway possible and didnt find anything, but if I looked for black midget lesbian jello wrestling I could find it no problem.
In conclusion lol, you know you like reading this dribble, names with a use that can be attributed to cell phones will be used and probably prosper. I just read sportsbook.mobi sold for 6 figures. Maybe I am thinking only USA, maybe in the rest of the world they will use the .mobi differently. Degenerate gamblers have there passcode and the 1-800 memorized so I cant see them using the phone to place there bets. I am not jealous or anything like that so people dont go off on me for sounding like a hater. I am just a stater and to see these names sell for so much and to see people hyping this up when this is just as bad as .us or .gs. The only difference is that google and everyone else isnt behind .gs. ANyone selling scam.mobi, I'll take it.
