I've used Fidelity for a long time, but not for shorting. Never did it with Fidelity. I like to trade using their FOX software and you can't short with it, must phone in to a broker. I would find some other place, perhaps Datek or something like CyBerTrader, so you can get in and out quickly. I don't believe Fidelity would work well, particularly if you're shorting as a daytrade or other very short term.

"Does anyone know how good Fidelity is for short availability?"

It would depend on what you are shorting.I have shorted most of the big internets(yhoo,amzn,cmgi,lcos,ssek) and the big techs(dell,intc,etc)
