Execute a trade (over ISLD) and watch simultaneously ISLD and Nasd tape updating

This I can see clearly. The "official" Nasdaq is several seconds behind. It "feels" like ISLD traders are driving the market by leading the price direction. Maybe they really are. I know ISLD often overshoots hard price limits created by large orders from other sources.

What I want to know is if *someone* is getting true "real time" or are we all in the same boat of getting "delayed" quotes of a few seconds slow behind the ECN's.

I accept that technology has its limits- I just am trying to understand what they are.
