Have you noticed the ISLD book today? It's time travelling! I keep seeing the book at it's 9:30 state, run up to the current time, then restarting at 9:30 over and over again. I wonder if that's Datek's problem(s) lately.

Just a thought folks, but I have heard that Datek is interested in doing an IPO, I wonder what would happen to that IPO pricing if each unhappy customer did his/her bit by informing one or more press outlets about the type of service that Datek provides and the level of customer satisfaction that exists. Voicing complaints on this board is nice but if you want to get the attention of Datek management (if they have any) you must take the story (just the facts) to a broader audience. Perhaps if the price on all their stock options was threatened then perhaps Datek would be motivated to provide the type of service that they have promised. As I said, just a thought.
