    I know that but maybe someone is thinking that the 4 names released in the last hours are going to be offered to everybody....

    I`m talking about :

    weather , ringtones and the other 2.

    Re: Mobi Registrar during Landrush

    Dotster.com had their "A" game on for the Mobi drops. Pool.com also did very well.

    DomainPeople.com and Galcomm.com did a decent job for me as well. I heard for some GoDaddy did well I didn't know about their pre-order program until it was too late.

    Based on my long list of pre-registrations:

    BEST
    -Dotster
    -Pool
    -GoDaddy
    -Website.in

    WORST
    -Enom
    -Moniker

    Dotster pretty much blowed everyone away. Enom pretty much just blowed.

    I agree. Dotster was spectacular during the MOBI release on September 26th.

    Re: Mobi Registrar during Landrush

    GoDaddy had a very clean and fair approach. No multiple preregs, no auctions afterwards, flat $60 rates. Once you were in the line no one else could get the name with them. GoDaddy spread out reservations between many clones (GoItaly, GoFrance, GoAustralia, ...) so success rate was high too. They learned from bad .eu experience.
    The only bad thing was they were freezing the money while i.e. DomainPeople (Hostway) were only charging successful regs after the fact.

    GoDaddy - best experience
    (after eu landrush Parsons said they lost lots of money, I knew with his aggressive approach he will do everything to succeed in mobi case)

    Re: Mobi Registrar during Landrush

    I am doing this research to find the best registrars where I can fund my accounts so that I can get the top names for extensions like ASIA and TEL.

    Would you'll care to update this thread also, just some info I would like to know.
