Domain remains registered until 2011. On expiry the domain name will be [renewed/suspended/cancelled] like any other.

cheers for that, does the original registrant still have control of the domain? i.e. access to it to change tags/transfer it?

thnx

yes – registrant retains full control of the domain.
