Caught this on diabloii.net, haven't seen any reference to it elsewhere here and wanted to pass it along:
Now, it COULD just be that Blizzard's locking down domains for the hell of it, so I think the presumption that this means DIII is imminent isn't necessarily a sure thing. But it does present the possibility.
Quote:More domain name fun. Ricard sends word that on 24th March Blizzard registered the diablo3.es (Spain) domain. They recently also aquired the diablo3.de domain from a third party. Before announcement of the title they'll want to gather up as many domains and that includes pre-owned ones as is the case with the German one. Whether the announcement is imminenet (E3 in May) or a little way off (Blizzcon in October) we're not sure but betting on either is safe.
You can check out the Spanish domain reg here, you'll need to type in the code printed above the form box to gain entry to show the page.
