Following up on DWrixons note about mention in DNJoural, here is the text from that article: http://www.dnjournal.com/domainsales.htm
QUOTE: Sedo's run began with a German IDN (International Domain Name) #3 übersetzer.de ("translator" in German) at €19,500 ($23,672). That sale will surely cheer the small but growing cadre of IDN fans who believe the spread of non-English alphabets to domain names is presenting a golden opportunity for investors.
That category is expected to get a further boost this year when Microsoft introduces their IE7 browser which will be IDN compliant (a popular alternative, the Firefox browser, already handles IDN's with aplomb). For those interested in learning more about IDN's, a new forum has opened at IDNForums.com that includes a number of people who are well versed in this area. Several members have lived and worked in other countries (or currently do), giving them unique insight into how other nations view domains and the opportunity to start using them in their native languages. END QUOTE
Great publicity...another big shovel of coal into the boiler! Thanks DN Journal! For added momentum, hopefully we can see IDN's up on their sales board on a consistant basis.
