On recent form it would be a mind blowing assumption to assert that any of the US banking majors even understand their core businesses let alone domain names. Hell, even the latest Bush initiative is only aimed at trying to get them to understand that there might just be more logic in working with their clients on a survival plan rather than forcing them to default!

Uh..maybe they don't have the 30k in cash, right?
Yes, but your problem is that without the major corporates spending massive budgets on .mobi sites the traffic will never come. As Catch 22 goes, this is completely Chicken and Egg!

So just why does Nokia.mobi forwards to Nokia.com?
