So, you have GOT to see this. (if you are really bored).

Go to eBay, so a search on "iPhone". 11,000+ items will come up. Sort by price, highest to lowest. And prepare to be AMAZED.

Someone is selling some very LAME iPhone domain names (like iattphones.com) for a measly $12,000,000 Buy it Now. yes, six zeroes - as in twelve MILLION DOLLARS.

There are plenty of other domains for more modest amounts, like 1 million, 1/2 million, 75K, etc.

Very sad and very pathetic (and amusing at the same time...)
 
Well take a look at all of those high dollar ones and you'll notice that the buyers either have zero feedback or they're no longer registered users.

It's kind of like when there was that one iPhone on eBay on the release date where the bid was up to like $100,000 and there were all these idiots freaking out, saying "oh my god i can't believe anybody would pay that much for an iPhone!" They're too stupid to realize that these zero-feedback ebayers are messing with the seller.
 
Anyone that pays any money for those domain names is a fool. Domain squatting with not just one, but TWO trademarked names. Genius.
