Hey there...

If price is your primary concern, I would go with E*trade. As long as you can put up with times when their site goes down, I think E*trade is very competitive in all other regards. It does take a while to get in touch with a human being, however. If that's important to you, I find that Schwab is much more responsive...both by phone and e-mail. In fact I find that Ameritrade's email response time is much quicker than ETrades...

If you were going to make a few trades a year, I would open a Schwab account, as you can get a debit card to access your money...and they will waive ATM fees when you wish to withdraw money from your account...now only if E*Trade would do something similar...

I've been an ETrade customer since 1994 or so, and I've never had a problem with their service, albeit it is sometimes very slow...so with ETrade or Schwab, you can't go wrong. Ameritrade, on the other hand...
