AJS,

I recently received a response to an email I sent to datek about options trading. Datek is now saying that options trading will not be available until 1998. As usual, no specific date.

Datek has repeatedly stated that option trading would be available "sometime in '97". I guess that has changed to "sometime in '98". Datek has always given vague answers to when future services would be made available. They seem quite unorganized when it comes to their software development and deployment.

I might actually trade with Datek again if they produced some sort of time table of when we could hope to see new features in place. But this would require them to actually produce the software. On the other hand this could lead to good customer service and more business for Datek. It'll never happen.

Hoping I'm wrong,

Mike
