I wonder how much will the EuroDNS.com charge for that extention registration...

I also think that .tel is just a new way of money making... Contacts could be published anywhere.

Yeah you won't make any more/less money with that.

A reputation of EuroDNS.com must be high, if it is the very first company to register new TLDs...
