This should make it easier for people to find and use web sites designed for the mobile world. No mention of what the new top level domain would be. I'm guessing ".mob", ".mbl", or ".cel". The suggestions will be submitted to ICANN on Monday and you can expect a 3 - 6 month review period. We might see these available by Christmas, if we're lucky. ;)
