LOS ANGELES--(Business Wire)--
Oversee.net, the leader in Internet real estate, said today that Moniker, an
Oversee company and one of the industry`s premier brokerage providers, has
successfully brokered the sale of Casino.mobi to Infomeda Ltd. 

Moniker founder Monte Cahn handled the US$135,000 transaction, which represents
one of the highest prices paid to date for a .mobi name; other premium .mobi
sales include Fun.mobi (US$100,000 in 2007), RealEstate.mobi (US$85,000 in 2007)
and Tickets.mobi (US$60,000 in 2008). 

Infomeda plans to use the name as an online portal, with location-based
information for bricks-and-mortar casino locations, reviews of mobile casinos as
well as "fun money" casino-style games and gaming tools. The site has launched a
beta version, and an official release is expected later this month. 

"This is a very strong sale for both parties in this transaction," said Cahn.
"Gaming enthusiasts are very interested in online applications, and continually
growing interest in the mobile Web indicates that the Casino.mobi site will
perform well when it launches." 

dotMobi CEO Trey Harvin concurred with Cahn and added, "It`s great to see the
value of .mobi names recognized in dollars. It`s even more meaningful to see the
name used to identify content that takes advantage of mobile phones and gives
game-players a one-of-a-kind experience that can`t be duplicated on a desktop
PC."
