 I've tried finding info on how expired domain names are handled but haven't 
 found much useful other than a few individual's comments in news groups which 
 said 30 days, 60 days, 6 months, and NSI auctions them off.
 
 Can anyone shed some light on this for me, or point me to some info on it?

I'm actually in the middle of a domain name grab right now. It's
actually supposed to happen today, strangely enough. There's been a
PENDINGDELETE status on this particular domain name for a few days now,
the actual delete is supposed to happen today. When it does, hopefully
I'll be able to snag it -- through Godaddy.

There was a long grace period of a few months. Different Registars have
different rules for the grace periods.

Just be patient and lurk quietly in the shadows. When it happens,
POUNCE!

 Thanks,
 Larry

The explanation page for GoDaddy's DomainAlert Pro service mentions a legally required 
grace period.  Their Investor's Edge list supposedly shows the actual date on which 
an expiring domain will become available for purchase by others.
