Zodiac Capital Limited is listed on the NSX , not the ASX,
There is a big difference
The company just released its annual report
They made a loss

The quip that just about every other company in the world made a loss for the year ended 30 June 2008 is just not true.
Yes, 9 months ago, this small company did make an investment to commercialize an IDN
Not sure why news of 9 months ago has now been posted together with the false information that the company is listed on the ASX
Unless it is yet another attempt o boost prospects of IDN

Must be catching;
Dream Holdings Ltd
Hong Kong, October 11th 2008 Dream Holdings Ltd (DHC)
Dream Holdings Ltd one of Hong Kong's major holding
companies has announced that it is to start a new
Casino in Macau to be named "Macau Royale Casino". In
addition to this Dream Holdings are entering into
a partnership with Chew Hon Hang to operate an
online casino .
ends Oct 11th 2008
And the next quarters ? Anyway - irrelevant. You really seem to jump on anything but the topic of the thread.
The "news" was just posted because the community has just been made aware of this very significant sale which you appear to be aware of and still consider it to be a promotion of IDN- BTW they are also domain names- and need very little promotion nowadays.
The "false" information - from here: http://www.nsxa.com.au/ftp/news/021719735.PDF
Tip of the Iceberg.

End user IDN sales in the high $xxxx to low $xx,xxx region are common, not even worth mentioning, but a $xxx,xxx buy by a public company is always interesting.
Right now, what are you gona do? Pay $xxx,xxx or $xx,xxx for a LL or LLL.com, or buy a bunch of LLLL.com only to dump them next year? I've started dumping my ASCIIs since 2006, yet i can't avoid losing some money, can't imagine those who kept buying, especially those moby domains.

Yes, that is correct
The company is NOT listed on the ASX ( the Australian Stock Exchange ) and that company made an announcement 9 months ago that they intended to invest the IDN domain name that for me resloves to

Boost prospects??
You need to check out the public document which is the "ICANN 2009 budget" and just go throught line items for IDN expenditures. As we hear too often "follow the money". Once you add in all the budgets for the various international registraries, combined with ICANN support over full rollouts of IDNs (idn.idn to join idn.com, idn.net, idn.cn, idn.jp etc) the total expenditures will easily exceed 100 million dollars.
This project has been 10 years in the making, and full implementation of idn.idn will begin sometime in 2009. Still plenty of good opportunities to acquire names at great prices on the various IDN forums. Many think of IDN at this stage being a parallel to "ASCII" names back in 1997-1998. Many expect that history will again repeat itself again, only this time around instead of latin domain names it will be with "international domain names". Many strong sales over the last year at x,xxx, xx,xxx and xxx,xxx to bear out this trend.

Who gives a monkey's? I have all mine parked.
My best three days for total number of clicks is the last three days. Come to think of it, it pretty much nearly always the last three days. That is the kind of pattern you notice after a while when you are experiencing exponential growth.![]()

I didn't know high priced IDNs had an ADDITIONAL requirement of having to be a developed site.... I guess these are a sour investment compared to LLN's ;-)
I can see what your offers look like:
$10
$7
$5.50
$12
etc
