A report from Internet statistics provider Ipwalk says that the new .mobi domain saw a significant number of registrations within the first 48 hours of opening up to brands with registered trademarks.

The sunrise period for trademarked brands, began on June 12 and will last for 70 days. Web Host Industry Review has a story.
