  Any ideas?

  Your name servers don’t seem to be set correctly to point to WordPress.COM

  Check these steps: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/map-existing-domain/

  Once everything is done correctly it can take 24 to 72 hours for changes to reach the far corners of the internet

  Thanks a lot for you quick reply, but what I was trying to do is to registrer a new domain, following the steps at (http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/register-domain/), not map an existing one.
  It looks like I’ve chosen a wrong option. Now sure how to fix it. Would I be able to cancel it and and register a new domain instead?
  Thanks in advance,
  George

  I’ve gone ahead and cancelled. It looks like the domain was registered.
