Speculators grab iPhone domain names

Visit iPhone.com and you’ll see ads for various cell phones that play music – but Apple Inc.’s much-hyped iPhone isn’t one of them. The domain name was grabbed long before Jan. 9, when Apple announced its gadget combining a cell phone, an iPod media player and a wireless Internet device. Since then, speculators and entrepreneurs have registered thousands of iPhone-related Internet addresses.
