I don't get it "flowers.mobi" Would this be flowers for your mobile phone or for a florist that's mobile? Doesn't make sense to me.

Lets say you forgot your girlfriend/wife birthday, and you are sitting iin the middle of fucking nowhere... you take your mobile phone, open the browser, type "flowers" (without .mobi, since furture browser will default to .mobi domians, if you do not type an extension) and order some flowers for her.

Add build-in GPS, faster speeds etc. and some interesting things will be possible...

apparently a very well known domainer bought it and also the people who owned flowers.com were bidding against him. so who knows.

There are extensive threads on domainstate and dnforum about these high profile mobi sales and the context in which they happened. Before you start throwing your money on the roulette wheel, read the threads and then make up your own mind.

en21 · 10-28-2006, 03:22 PM

that sounds like a scam

pigman · 10-28-2006, 03:23 PM

Most buyers that hype .mobi are resellers not endusers ;D
Like .eu and the coming .asia they have no real endusers.
