Apple takes Administrative Control of iCloud.com domain

Apple today took administrative control of the iCloud.com domain less than a week before CEO Steve Jobs is to unveil his company's new cloud-based service. According to WHOIS searches Wednesday, Apple is now listed as the owner of the iCloud.com domain.

As late as Tuesday, the domain was still registered to Swedish firm Xcerion, which had used the URL for its online file-storage service.
