Well, I'm the owner of the only Arabic 2 char number that is guaranteed to get type-in traffic:

٨٩.com


It already gets a couple a day and is increasing by the day. Several clicks as well. I think this one will be a revenue generator for a long time.

.
Don't you think the term 69 owes something to the shape of characters?

No, that is "89.com".

69.com would be ٦٩.com

In that case you will have to explain the significance and sorry for mis-judging you as an American. I must admit I should have done better with the Numerals than that!

Doesn't this kind of show that numerals are too generic to brand?

Once upon a time, somebody believed that they were unique domains, per se.

Good publicity/exposure for IDNs, timing couldn't have been better right after the skinning/sponsoring of namepros.
very good, this could improve very much the IDN market!

Well, at least he's got the buxx and the balls to buy, if he's presented with such generics.

On another note, don't forget he owns digipawn; he might give a boost to the secondary market, for those interested in selling.
