Any new tld cctld etc is a bigger gamble personally the ones I have bothered with have paid of on around a 50/50 basis My key has been very generic, sort after fields etc among other things I go if top tld,s and cctld.s etc are all developed if there not much much harder? Then there’s a market but be realistic if you can make 3 to 5 times the fee your normally on too a winner Normally it’s a quick smash and grab and sell for me at least..

Completely true, I got sucked into .Asia and .Mobi when they first came out but luckily managed to quickly flip them at a profit, not all of them, the rest I let drop but was worth it. I will only hang on to them for the year and then let them go if there's no interest.
You're most likely right mate but I won't lose sleep over such a small amount if nothing comes of these three domains.
It's the country code for Palau.
I can't see any commercial significance at all.
Tuvalu's .tv worked because TV represents television, but why PW, not a chance in my view.
You will see sales but how else can they promote a surge in investment.

Nope not getting any .pw
Still got some decent keywords in .me like "recruitment" etc and .pro "entertainment" with limited offers so not wasting any more cash.
To me .pw is similar to .im its a cctld rebranded poorly and only makes sense for its original purpose.
In a similar vein noticed microsoft had a tv advert last night ending in .ie for I presume internet explorer. I'm in scotland not ireland so perhaps something like secure.pw would be worth a punt for someone somewhere.

I should imagine every large company who have a base in Ireland use it, it is the Ireland country code.
Not sure if it is still the same but ie registration used to be restricted to entities based in Ireland.

Yeah every large company uses .ie in Ireland.
It is still the same as far as I know. You can't register a .ie unless you've got a business based around the name etc.
That's why there are still some nice .ie's available.
Doodlebug I thought so also just can't see Whitney would be using .ie when it would be more appropriate or .co.uk (wish I could remember the URL now.)
Pred believe it's the same colour also!
And they are releasing the 2 character domain already so must be spanking it raw..
