Hello, I'm a fellow holder of PRWT and have been since .011. Actually, I got in and watched in agony as it dropped to .003 but held on much to my satisfaction (as it was a good decision).

Now that that's over with, a comment about the website: I design them for a living - among other things. In fact, I am responsible for several very complex sites. (I guess you'll just have to trust me on that...) I can tell you that Susan's response is valid. What your talking about doing is interfacing with the floor of the busiest data transfer site on earth. If you add every other exchange together around the world and compare it to DOW and NASDAQ you would see it is only a small fraction the size. 80% of all long distance phone calls on earth occur on Manhattan (really).

So your going to design an interface to make it possible for you and I in the comfort of our own homes to go to the street and trade - over phone lines? I can't begin to tell you what that means from a level of difficulty point of view. One thing is clear. AWS has been working on this for several years to make it happen. We are just lucky enough to come in on the end of the development cycle. Look a Windows 98 (actually, DON'T!). Whenever you go to market on a live system there are ALWAYS problems. Give them time. If they can pull this off first - and you can be sure it's a race with competitors - we will find ourselves with an E*Trade, Yahoo, or AOL as people realize they can go to the floor and not worry about putting their financial future in the hands of an MM.

Sorry for the novel. Just thought you would appreciate the technical perspective.
