This is the kind of name that pisses some people off.

Any appraisals?

???

Why...you're mad you registered it and can't sell it???

Just wondering, what do you mean.

Little resale value. Perhaps try to develop, then sell

No doberry. Some people don't like transient popular names like 3g names or wap names because of the absurd names people come up with. Some Tend to extend this attitude even to the more sensible root names.

I tend to stay away from version numbers, dates, etc...

In a matter of months, years... they are useless.

This has little value.. sell quick before 4G is even a whisper!

Tee · 10-17-2002, 03:44 PM

I agree about the numbers but 3g is 3g.

Tee · 10-17-2002, 03:47 PM

Also, 4g doesn't rhyme!

**GiantDomains** · 10-17-2002, 03:48 PM

Sell it fast - take what you can get - be happy with $5-50

Thanks for your appraisals.

My thinking was that it would be more valuable as a .net because of the 3g network thing. With the .net extension making the most sense. But .com being the type in king would be best if you could get that. I'm thinking I'll try and sell it on ebay when 3g technology gets a little more buzz happening. If it gets more buzz happening. Honestly, I don't think it is a great name by any means.

Even if their was a 4g technology, it would probably be called something else. 3G works well cause it rhymes. In any case, any particular technology name could be worth something even if the technology was old and supplanted by new technology. Thiongs have value for different reasons.

I just like it cause its a buzz phrase. Maybe its worthless. But I don't regret registering it. I've seen much worse posted here!

There is already buzz about 4G. In fact, Ericsson is already making 4G phones (demos).

In the US, we are only up to 2.5G.

See what I mean, the name is useless.

Tee · 10-17-2002, 04:46 PM

I think you are getting typeins because the .net and the hyphenated version appear to be developed so you are probably getting error typeins. Shows you the power of .com

Tee · 10-17-2002, 04:48 PM

Now do the same with 3g phone

Blown away.

It matters not that we use 2.5g. It matters that the term 3gtechnolgy is used to describe the whole shebang.

I like this sentence:

"Thanks to 3G technology, we no longer have to choose between fun and functionality. Now, 3 enables us to have both at the same time"

GSMtechnology.com is a GREAT name. Would you like to swap that name with BQE.net. Ok I ll give 69s.org with it as a compliment.

If you owned 3G.com, I would say you definitely have a winner....

But we are appraising 3Gtechnology.net
1- Its dated
2- Its long
3- Its a .net

These are what make this domain worthless, but like I said, sell it fast, while 3G is the buzz...take what you can get.

Tee · 10-17-2002, 04:59 PM

I agree, sell it while it's hot.

3G Technology is just getting started

4G won't be here until at least 2010. I have a few months I think (lol).

I once owned one very similar to this, perhaps even better ... and in the .NET. My suggestion, allow yours to lapse and potentially lose when and if "3G" ever takes off (or is at least around enough time before "4G", etc.). So, keep the thing for nominal cost ... and do yourself one HUGE favor; market the thing overseas, namely Europe. Today!
Good Luck,
