Baidu is HUGE!! Very good news! Also, it doesnt matter where it forwards to because all people have to know is to go to Baidu.mobi. This will give recognition to .mobi to hundreds of millions of people.

Great find. Kind of ironic that the "other" search engine site (which also happens to be a backer) has not yet taken this step. Maybe this will speed them up.....

REAL address... wireless.baidu.com
i will be rebelling by typing in the
real address anytime i go to that site.. WHO WILL JOIN ME IN THE REVOLUTION?
but seriously, what kinda people besides domainer dorks complain about where a site redirects when they type in a domain.. thats what im still trying to figure out.

Excellent find Ajkula!!!
Baidu is known as the "Google of China"
Baidu.mobi is a game changer.

I know we have endured much bashing for our interest and enthusiasm for .mobi but no need to rub it in. Let's just enjoy this great find for what it is.

Doesn't work for me -- pops up a 'save as' dialog box.. anyone know why?

Great news for China mobi market.
But haven't seen any promotion for the site.
Baidu.com is the biggest search engine in China, holding more than 80% of the market.
