Accepts pre-registrations from trademark owners for the dotmobi trademark sunrise period; investors of dotmobi include Microsoft, Google, Nokia and Erickson.

EnCirca, an ICANN accredited registrar, today announced that it is accepting pre-registrations from trademark owners for the dotmobi trademark sunrise period.

The company said that the dotmobi domain, such as encirca.mobi, is intended for websites that can be viewed from wireless devices. Investors of dotmobi include Microsoft, Google, Nokia and Erickson. While, the .mobi sunrise period is divided into two time periods. The first one is for trademark owners in the wireless telecommunications industry and the second is open to all trademark owners.

"Trademark owners are advised to get their applications in as early as possible," says Tom Barrett. "Due to the recent launch of the .eu domain, there has been a flood of trademark registrations by domain name investors. Many of these will be eligible for the dotmobi sunrise period."
