Don't know about private registration or mail. Check it out at name.com

As for switching, it is pretty easy and well documented. Generally take
about a week. In terms of payment, I switch around renewal time, so I am not
100% sure, but I THINK they simply add a year to your normal expiration
date, regardless of when you switch over.

And when the switch completes, remember to do the DNS.

for the folks quoting $9-10.   does this include private registration?  if
not how much extra does each of your respective firms charge for that? 
and do you get any free email addresses web mail with your respective
registrars?

rich.  how ez is the process switching from godaddy?  will they prorate the
unused amount of your domain fees when you switch before the term paid for
is complete or do you have to eat it?  been looking for a godaddy
alternative for a long time.
