Network Solutions does a little "butt biting" as they say

They just let me register denic.de, the .de manger.

From denic.de:
Error: com.de is not a valid .de domain.
Hint: There are certain terms that cannot be registered as domains. These include the abbreviated geographic designations used on road-vehicle number plates in Germany and the endings used by Top Level Domains.

They also let me go all the way through the process with com.de, net.de, int.de, eu.de, etc.

Network Solutions loses many a cool point in my book. I liked them because of cheap .de regs. However, even when calling customer service, they told me that "Yes" my order for net.de and org.de will be filled within 24 hours.

Do they even bother doing a whois for them? Do they even know anything about domains as they say its being registered com.de that is.

Their .de's are only $11 for one year, as opposed to GoDaddy at 29.95 a year. Funny thing is, their buying for long terms (2 and 3 year options) are less of a deal than buying for one year is...

NSI seems to be less than kosher, so to speak.

It's one of those things where I held on to the hope that somehow they had some "special arrangement" that let them register (Like the .cc and .bz changes of recent) special/reserved names.

Still, chances of me sticking with NSI are very slim.
