Somethings broken, it show zip.com as available, and it was registered in 1997, is valid until 2015.

I'm sorry guys, we can't WHOIS every domain, so there will be a few false positives.

yeah, looks like it. Oh well, it gave me brief hope of having an awesome domain.

I'll save you some time: there are no three character .com domains available, not for a long time :)
