Getting To Grips With DotTel
With .tel domains expected to "go live" in dns very soon Telnic have made available a number of resources to help people make the best use of their .tel domain(s).
The updated "community" page on the Telnic site provides access to a range of useful information:

The domains will 'go live' (resolve to the DNS and work when you enter them online) no later than March 6th, 2009. Your registrar will provide you with your login credentials that will allow you to access your .tel control panel from which you can manage your .tel domainI wish that wasn't so vague, as I have a couple of .tel domains that I would like to get up and running (one personal / one business)

Likewise - I've populated the domain name with a few records guess I now just sit and wait until they decide to go live at some undetermined point this week.
I'm having a few other issues too, not sure if you may have had more succsess:
1) Logging into the tel community is fine, but I can't add any domain names to my account yet as the one I have populated records for 'does not exist' - guess this will exist whenever it decides to go live.
2) I've installed the .tel software on my phone, but to start using it I have to login - but I have no login details to use. My user, created via registrar hosting, does not work, neither does the .tel community login details.
Very underwhelmed so far.

I don't think you'll be able to manage your own DNS records, as from what I can gather Telnic are handling all of that centrally ...
I could be wrong of course ..
