Indeed. However, I am somewhat disheartened that this could happen. IMO, Verisign should have never have registered that domain - the registrar should have provided a language for the label, that language should have been "Russian" (or else &1072; should not have been allowed), and this combination of Cyrillic and Latin letters should not be allowed for the Russian language.
