I know you all are tired of this question, but...

In regards to options.. what really is the hold up? Everyone else is doing it with success, why can't Datek deliver this to us now? I just noticed an add for www.investrade.com where you can trade up to 10 contracts for $17.95.. not a bad price. Can Datek beat this price?

Datek: You ARE moving in the right direction, but pick up the pace a bit. My fear is that the new web site is the last big news we'll see for a while. I am indeed a satisfied customer and trader, but do want more!

Thanks,
Mike

I'm not too excited about the mutual fund choices at this point, though at least there is Fidelity. (Though they are load funds.)

More no-load funds. More popular and "hot" funds. (Seligman funds, please, for example.) Index funds. Some no-load index funds would be fantastic, and probably would be the most popular funds, for people who want to "park" for a while or hedge. (Rydex Ursa for a short market hedge.)
