Nancy,

I have accounts with TWE, Datek and DIR. Here are what I think w.r.t. short availability.

TWE: Availability 60%, since most customers are buy and hold investors. Bad: No BBs or under $5 short allowed

Datek: Forget it.

DIR: Availability 70%. Allows BBs and under $5 shorts. Drawback: $20 per 1000sh compared to $12 under 5000sh at TWE.

Hope this helps,
