...the biggies will soon announce...

The "biggies" will be playing catchup for the next year.
They are to E*Trade what IBM, CPQ, and HP are to DELL. Current
online trading companies have refined not only the technology,
but also their on-line revenue structures. The "biggies" have not.
Consumers have and will continue to realize that for those "few
extra pennies", they receive nothing more than what others
currently offer. Those that do embrace the big boys' on-line offerings already read WSJ and IBD at six in the morning so "extensive-research-at-our-site" will no longer be a significant factor in attracting new customers away from their current on-line brokers.

My money is with EGRP.

Scrumpy
