Appraise these .mobi domain

[hydrogin]

txty.mobi (check your cell keypads, its friggin easy to enter .. its 8989)

and loll.mobi (5655)

these two were 30bux each at GD (ouch) .. min reg is 2 years

so what do you think of them??? and .mobi

they better pay off or else

$0 - I don't see .mobi taking off

.com .net and .org are in a league of their own
.us had potential but doesn't seem to be doing so hot
.info and .tv could become huge given the right circumstances

there is no need for .mobi. the site could just determine you are on a mobile phone and redirect you to the proper html and coding. it's just another way to make butt loads of money from people trying to get in on the Internet Real Estate Game.

Stick with your top 3 levels unless you get an AMAZING keyword or you're doing arbitrage then it hardly matters.

Is there a central .mobi directory? I'd love to be able to access mobile-specific pages with my treo, but I have no idea where the hell to start.

 

[Proof]

its easy to enter the domain...but the extension is still a pain in the ass with m and o being together

 

[trigatch4]

Then cell companies should make a button that just adds ".mobi" all at once

Or, couldn't you save it as "quick-text" or something?

I'm surpirsed these sites went for so much

you're never gonna be able to grab those domains as quickly as these guys do
they're registrars, firing 1000 queries a second to snap those top domains
if you're just a regular guy, don't even bother
