   Just a lurker normally but how about using product/services as a
   qualifer?  Examples:  ibm.computers.com att.telephone.com
   specialized.bicycles.com cisco.networks.com?

I like this one!  It not only deepens the name space but can provide
some additional (read "advertising") to the user, making it an easier
proposal to sell.

For example, I would not want to loose ior.com, but I would be more
willing to use ior.isp.com than ior.spk.wa.us (geographic).

It shouldn't be too difficult to have your company listed under
multiple product/service categories if your company covers more than
one.
