Default Anyone preregistred any .asia domains ?

Anyone pre register any .asia domains ? I Godaddy promoting them. $19.99 a domain and there is a 100$ non-refundable application fee. what they say is

" $100.00 non-refundable application fee applies for General Registered Marks, Extended Protection and Registered Entity Names registrations. "

I haven't done it yet because it's pretty expensive and with that amount I can't register much domains anyways.

I didnt do any pre-registrations. It is pricey and I am not sure, I will get something of worth. I opted to wait and watch how .asia fares.

No Pre-registration for me yet.. It's way to expensive. However, I'm sure that the people who are real domainers are already in hunt..

Yes me neither. Price is too much also this $100.00 non-refundable application fee is a real blow.

yes that's common, do you know in 1995 domains can be registered for U.S.$119/year then lowered to U.S.$100 then lowered to U.S.$70/2 years? since this is pre-regged they have limited people to do it.

Even without application fee , $19.99 is too much. Maybe thats to keep the domainors out of it and let those end users to get what they want.

.asia is a waste of money I think honestly unless its for a travel/asia related website. There's no benefit of having something like freeringtones.asia

yes only worth once would be premium domains like travel.asia, sex.asia, sports.asia etc But others might gain too since domain name market growing day by day they need domains to for the demand.
