If you're left scratching your head wondering what to do with your alphabetic Japanese placenames now that IDN is rushing forward, please email me a list (with prices) - it's possible I may be interested.

Hey Edwin this is exactly how I remember you years ago.
This is the reason why I kept telling you to get into the IDN market.

I knew you were the only other one actively seeking Japanese terms.
Back then it was just romaji terms.

I have a few good romaji terms that at the beginning I just made sure I bought the IDN counterpart. These are sure to be developed sites so they don't get listed at all.

Just wanted to tell ya I knew about ya from wayyyyyy back you big in Japan man....

welcome lmg. you are correct about placenames. Romanji is Roman letters,
like tokyo.com. You can search this word in this forum for more details on the 4
writing systems of Japan 8)

After we had the "idn may fail so sell me your IDN names cheap" thread last week, I KNEW this one would show up one day. :^)

Except that my post was over a month ago, well before any of the latest "sky is falling" round.

Incidentally, I'm still looking...

I'm also interested in very solid generic .com Romaji domains that define a particular industry. For instance "haisha.com" (dentists.com), "shigoto.com" (jobs.com) and so on.

Can you point me towards the "idn may fail so sell me your IDN names cheap" thread? How can I have missed that one...
