.mobi Approved

"Wow, I'm pretty amazed this happened, but I probably shouldn't be with Nokia, Microsoft and Vodafone pushing for it. But it looks like we'll be able to register a .mobi domain sometime soon (after the 90 day sunrise period is over)."
Well, add another TLD to the mix, this one hopefully meeting the needs of the mobile browsing community with easily digestable mobile webpages. Russ Beattie has some interesting comments on the news. I'm of mixed opinion when I think about TLDs - On one side, I think they should be uniform, with everyone actually using their country code, then site type indication (i.e. .com.us .net.uk) to make it easier to see the whole point of the site. And on the other side, I don't want to give up my 15 .com's because they are easy to remember! What are your comments on this development? Good thing? Bad Thing?
