I'm the king of off-topic. I'm doing my best to be on good behavior over here.

Hmmm... wait, but 'M' is the first letter on the 6 key (M,N,O).

So 'MMM' should be easy to type or dial, yes?

What am I missing?

Sorry for getting off-topic Jeremy. :red:

Mp3s.mobi $13,500

Call.mobi $8,200

Motel.mobi $2800

American.mobi $725

MMM.mobi $3,000

Lasik.mobi $925

Many others but forgot to keep track.....

One more day of auctions that I am in.......

Do Pool auctions normally go this high during landrush? How was it during the .eu landrush?

 

[.net]

American. mobi :tu:

should be a reserved name

In my experience it wouldn't be that easy... since if you hit MM real quick it will change your M to N ... get it?

So you have to hit M wait ... then hit it again, wait... hit it again. Or hit M, space, back, M, space, back, M to do it quicker.

 

[karamba]

yes MCDomains is right. It's better adg then mmm. cause need to wait.

Is .MOBI really that hot?

 

[Jo]

Is .MOBI really that hot?

Well, around here it's 50/50 according to the poll:
http://www.namepros.com/244591-what-np-members-own-least-1-a-2.html

 

[Heman maximus]

Looks like its hot...

Im allready checkking out developed websites on my cell. Its going to catch up very soon.

 

[movingconcierge]

If the speculation that the default extension while typing on your cell will be .mobi is true, I can't see how mobi would not be hot. Did you see the investors? :tu:

I think the fact that two diabolically opposed monoliths (G and M) come together to financially back a new technology, that has significant meaning. :imho:

Early .mobi backers include Web content giants such as Google (nasdaq: GOOG - news - people ), which already has its google.mobi site up and running, and Microsoft (nasdaq: MSFT - news - people ), whose Windows Mobile operating system powers many of the newest smartphones and palmtops in the U.S. Other .mobi sponsors include device mobile manufacturers Nokia (nyse: NOK - news - people ) and Samsung and mobile carriers such as Deutsche Telekom's (nyse: DT - news - people ) T-Mobile, Telecom Italia Mobile and Vodafone (nyse: VOD - news - people ), [...]

 

[MCDomains]

The post above mine is music to my ears...

if .mobi becomes the default on phones, wow... .mobi will explode.

Pool.com auctions

Here are some Pool.com auction final values. If any of these are repeats, I appologize.

Banking.mobi = $4000
cafe.mobi = $2050
deliver.mobi = $1449
geek.mobi = $412
geeks.mobi = $225
groceries.mobi = $311
howardstern.mobi = $500
loan.mobi = $3850
priceline.mobi = $398
tech.mobi = $725

 

[movingconcierge]

loan.mobi = $3850 == Hell of a deal

I could see a loan & check cashing center locator type of a site.

 

[ezinaz]

Does this seem fishy to anyone else? Why would people be auctioning such high-value domains for those reasonable prices so early? It seems as if pool.com is really the owner of those domains, and if so they are making a killing.

I was wondering about the same thing. If i had LOAN.mobi, i woudnt let it go for such a low value. I guess that person needed fast cash...Maybe he got Druged...heh.

 

[StrictlyNames]

I believe these are names that pool caught during the landrush that had multiple bidders. Then they went to an auction to determine the winner of the people that 'backordered" them.

 

[domaindigger]

Assuming .MOBI takes off, Banking.mobi and Loan.mobi for about $4k a piece is a steal, as are Mortgages.mobi for $10,500, Call.mobi for $8,200, and Mp3s.mobi for $13,500. They could each be worth $500,000 in 5 years times, or am I wrong?

 

[gamehouse]

Only time will tell. In the mean time one thing is sure that Pool is getting rich also on .mobi auctions.

Pool auctions

Are these public auctions? If so, is anyone here participating?

I might have to go check this out.

pool.com landrush pre reg

These auctions are for landrush pre registrations. Only those people who tried to acquire the names through pool.com were able to bid. All the .mobi landrush auctions are completed.

 

[Broker]

Pool has you all fooled. They owned those names from day one and are in fact "auctioning" them off for profit to their own customers. I would never ever deal with pool after seeing these actions. They should be shut down and fined imho!
