jonny, I just deleted a post about how edu.us was $5 bc when I went to buy it on godaddy it said it wasnt available... but looking at the whois record, it looks like it was expired, and they just saw I was interested in it and held the registration so I would have to pay a $70 broker fee. That is shady as hell.
