I do not really recommend this as it can be considered typo squatting. I would come up with an original idea and not ride anyones coat tails.

It might have been "ingenious" in 1995. Now it will simply get you a C&D letter from a legal team somewhere.

I have to admit that some so called typo domain names have very good value. If you visit namepors.com you will understand what I mean.
