Ok, this is that time of the year again when hordes of entrepreneurs, speculators or adventurers go and register their share of cola.mobi, frenchfries.mobi, isellstuff.mobi sites. Yes, the .mobi domain will be open next Tuesday. Landgrab is a very successful business model, like anything based on the temporary imbalance of supply and demand (remember the overnight condo-flipping wealth in Florida?).
There is definitely the core list of registered trademarks, brands and aspiring brands that will be registered. The good old (1999) Trademark Cyberpiracy Prevention Act took care of the resellers of pepsi.mobi but there is still a lot of room for sales.mobi and the like. So get up bright and early next Tuesday when the gates of registrars open. My vote is for dowereallyneedanotherdomain.mobi or for a more supportive view look here.
