[ga] Dot-Mobi: Posterchild for new gTLDs has some financials on the web

Hi folks,

New gTLD advocates aren't going to like the financials for dot-mobi that were 
shown on PaidContent.org:

http://paidcontent.co.uk/article/419-dotmobi-sells-.mobi-domain-name-operator/

Of course, ICANN's so-called "economic experts" won't consider these facts, 
just like they ignored the issue of switching costs, externalities, etc. that 
were discussed previously in response to the Carlton garbage.

The jig is up. Domain registrants want competition in the form of competing 
regular tenders for operation of .com (and .net/org too). Everything else is a 
distraction that only benefits the ICANN insiders.

Sincerely,

George Kirikos

P.S. I'd really love to see the financials of Telnic (.tel). :-) Adding AdSense 
to their pages won't rescue them.
