i have always wondered why with current technology a landline phone isn't able to be used from a greater distance from it's base ?

Technologically possible doesn't always mean practical or safe, I like my brain unfried :)

No, but the other way around is more than possible. There is no reason why your mobile couldn't take over your landlines' function the moment you walk into its zone, integrating PHS or DECT in a mobile should be a no brainer. Suitable mobiles can already access their networks via UMA (3GPP) over wifi.
 
Mobile and Landline convergence has been tried before by both BT (BT Fusion originally using Bluetooth and later WiFi) and Orange (Orange Unique using WiFi.)

However neither took off, primarily as they relied on proprietary handsets so you couldn't use your favourite Nokia or iPhone on these services.

To try and steer this thread back on topic; surprising that it's the first result for "sedo mobilephones" and the actual auction isn't on page 1 (I didn't bother checking any further.)
 
It will go for decent cash, but I just hope that Sedo have it 'marketed' outside the usual email-to-users so it goes for its proper value!

Will be interesting to see where it goes, if its 'end user' or reseller/developer.

From the bidding pattern it is not an end-user but a few stinky resellers. It can only go around 50K.

Would love too know what you class as non-stinky resellers, seeing as your names you resell on here are mainly £100 > £90 > £80 etc ? I don't see how your comment is justified, especially in the same sentence as "it can only go to £50k"

As for bidding pattern - jeeeeez ! Maybe the new buyer will build a site, that will fail and then they will resell it on - oh but that's premature thinking also ;)
 
yes but the 'market' is mobile phones, not landline phones and mobile phones term are dying except for oldies like us - its like mobiles.co.uk - its the dialup domain of the mobile phone era. Don't get me wrong its still a very nice domain (both).

you know: 'films' = old farts | 'movies' = the other 75%

alot of money to invest in keyword domain in a dying market which was ripe 5 years ago.

People will still always need to distinguish between landline phones and mobile phones so i would expect the term to stay strong even though the tecnology is old. If it goes for under 80k i would be surprised, time will tell.
 
oh but that's premature thinking

Yes you think premature. Wait and see the results. Besides I have no time to explain you how I come to that result.

Anyway here is what I call class: If I make a thread I sell names whether it is 80 or 80000. I do not create threads of sale every day. You understand that, thread monkey?!

No you just make 1 thread every 2 months with 60+ names in the thread - which is equal to more than 1 sale thread a day - anyway I have no time to explain to you, how I came to that result.

I look forward to seeing the results and wonder if your crystal ball.....I mean inside knowledge will prove me wrong :rolleyes:

Anyway this isn't about you or me, so let's get this thread back on topic now :)
 
It might not go any higher - Sedo's done a fabulous job of hiding the active auctions, after all!
 
What a crap end time.

If that was my name I would not be happy...!
 
I think it is based on the time of the offer that was accepted to send to auction.

yes, thats how the system works however you would think there would be some element of filtering or at least intervention on such a name.

proof in the pudding and all that though.
 
Can you launch names into 7 days auctions on sedo without a bid ?

I notice dom collect are doing that alot, and I've never seen it before (I only really look at great names, and domlore's list so maybe I missed it).
