number of pages in google search for

searches in overture
iloans 38
eloans 2,782

itravel 2,568
etravel 415

ichat 6,051
echat 178

ihotel 33
ehotel 58

iflights 0
eflights 81

I think therefore it varies considerably according to the term to which you apply the prefix.

If it in anyway makes sense (i chat for instance) then someone will have probably registered a brand with it some time ago and that may now have value.

even if it doesn't make sense, I think the development of previous brands is what is driving the traffic e.g. eloans (I don't think it means "he loans"!)

but edoes! (edoes.net avail)

Also in internet terms, e can mean email and i can mean internet, so that might twist it a bit.

m can mean mobile

ibrew.co.uk google uk = 31 results
ebrew.co.uk google uk = 165 results

both available

[ Edit: ibrew gets 31 without the .co.uk ... ditto ebrew with 165 ...
My mistake... well spotted chaps ]

I don't get anything for ebrew.co.uk on google or overture.

ebrew - probably missed the H.
