Heh, another thing i just noticed, although domA.com hasn't been 
available for registration for a week now, the information available in 
the whois database states that the entry was both created and updated 
today, the 25th Sep 2008. I'm guessing that tomorrow it'll have those 
two values updated too.

Now i'm just speculating but, to me,  it looks like some sort of scheme 
to get the domain restricted from registration but with no cost 
associated to the "momentum" owner ...
