Anyone else seen this ?
What implications for the future ? (is it Orange ;-)
>>>
.mobi was approved by ICANN last year and is intended to be the first - and only - domain suffix dedicated to delivering internet content to mobile devices. .mobi is backed by some of the biggest mobile phone manufacturers, network providers and internet companies and is designed to revolutionise internet use on mobile devices, by giving users the confidence that when they access a .mobi website using their mobile device, they will be served with made-for-mobile internet content and services.
The public launch process for .mobi begins on Monday, 12th June with a Sunrise period during which trademark holders can apply to protect their trademarks in .mobi. This Sunrise period will continue until 21st August 2006 and is open to all national trademarks including European Community Trademarks (CTMs).

Hadn't seen it, but a quick Google search turned up quite a bit of stuff. There is already a wikipedia entry which can be found here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.mobi
And a sizeable discussion on slashdot.com:

Here is a good article on Wireless Week:

and of course the ICANN minutes (from Dec. 2004):
