Yeah, quite neat. But have you seen the latest from Island? (www.isld.com). It's a pushing Java client where you type in the symbol and it shows you the book in real time (top ten or so).

Now, this is (as far as i know) some guy doing it in his free time. How come Big Mighty Datek can't write a similar thing to have real time quotes pushed ?

HTML is ok if you're prepared to accept that YOU have to push the button for an update. But if you'd like to be updated whenever there's news (tick) you'll need either a dedicated socket client, or a java applet.
