Interested in a café.eu or wish to pick up telefóno.eu? Eurid has finally announced that idn will be introduced for .eu domains from Dec 10.


ended up going for quite a few of these, but now noticing the level of promotion sedo.com/euIDN are doing on homepage etc i'm doubtful i'll see any of them successfully registered...

"euIDN Advance Order
Welcome to the advance ordering service for internationalized .eu domains.
Please enter your preferred domain into this field and Sedo will try to pre-register these domains for you.
Here is how you can become the owner of this domain:
If we are able to successfully register the domain on your behalf on 10th December 2009, the domain will automatically appear in the special auction on 11th December. The domain will then be sold to the highest bidder when the auction ends on17th December.
Should you be the first person to order this domain (which you can see by the appearance of a green tick) and the only bidder in the auction, the domain will be yours for only €99.
Should there already be another interested party for this domain (which you can see by the appearance of a red cross), you will have the chance to bid on the domain throughout the special auction.
In any case, you will be informed via email about the start of the special auction for any domains you have placed the advance order for.
To our FAQ’s
To inspire you, here are a few suggestions from our database: IDN.csv"
https://www.sedo.co.uk/member/eu/IDN.csv suggests over 18,000 IDN terms. wouldn't much fancy just suggesting a name then paying €99 if you're the only one interested, or it goes to an auction and could cost more.

Competition was ridiculous. Ah well!
Lots of the other IDN landrushes (like .biz and org--with Asian/Latin languages) were a hell of a lot easier to pick up some decent domains in other languages. This time? Whoa.
My few:
èu.eu A bit of French :gl:
евро.eu Euro- Russian, Bulgarian etc
спорт.eu Sport- Russian, Bulgarian
блог.eu Blog - Russian, Bulgarian
карта.eu - Map -Russian, Bulgarian
компьютер.eu -Computer -Russian, Bulgarian?

Just goes to show that IDN are now going mainstream, just as a few predicted. Only upwards from here on in. :tu:
