I also like that they are choosing bofa.mobi as their brand for mobile banking. From their website:

-------

Bank of America is proud to offer Mobile Banking to all Online Banking customers. With Mobile Banking, you can use your cell phone or smart phone to easily and securely access balance information, pay your bills, transfer funds, or even find a nearby ATM or banking center. It's easy, fast and convenient – just go to www.bofa.mobi on your phone's web browser and you can get started.


No m dot, mobile dot or other games, just the simple and clean bofa.mobi. Got to love it!

The fact is that xxx.com/mobile, m.xxx.com/mobile, etc., etc. are very very confusing to the average person.

Now, xxx.mobi on the other hand is easy to remember for anyone.

Also from their mobile banking FAQ:

Quote:
How do I access Mobile Banking?

Before you can use your phone or wireless device to access your account, you must first sign in to Online Banking. Select the Customer Service Menu from the Accounts Overview page, and then choose Activate Mobile Banking from the Online Banking Features section. Activation is free and requires only that you provide your cell phone number.

Once you have activated, open the web browser on your phone or wireless device and enter www.bofa.mobi into the address bar. When prompted, enter your Online ID, verify your SiteKey, and enter your Passcode-- just as you would in Online Banking. After you sign in successfully, you can select the actions you want to perform from the main menu.

You can add www.bofa.mobi to your favorites list on your wireless Internet browser, just as you would on your computer for convenient access in the future.

saltysoda is an unknown quantity at this point


Bank of America surely not wasting any time and therefore it's competitors would soon be thinking about their dotmobi's site.

Just like I said before that dotmobi is already successful and now we can see
greater prospect for dotmobi.

I wonder which of these guys (big banks) is going to end up with bank.mobi or banks.mobi. Mtld should put those out for sealed bids from the big banking players. And banking.mobi is in the hands of one fortunate Aussie. That's some serious dotmobiing down under.

Or they could always make me an offer on "SavingsBank.mobi"...


P.S. That "fortunate Aussie" is Andres of OneUglyDomain.com...
