I am also a Platinum Level E-Trade and was allocated zero shares.

Just talked to E-Trade and it turns out that the only priority Platinum clients get is in notice that the IPO is going to be put on the web site --- absolutely no priority in the allocation itself.

Guess it's time I consider taking my 10+ trades daily to another broker!

Mine was like 9:32 or so, I got 100. Some got none, I bet there were few if no people that got 200.

I got 100 shares, am a Power E*Trade Platinum customer and
my indication of interest was timestamped 9:35 and change.

I think the initial message letting one know that the
subscription will open on Tuesday evening only went
to Power E*Trade Platinum users.

Hey Bob Duncan...I was time stamped (ETrade - 935 pm EST...5 min after open) and got 100...the fact that a previous poster was able to enter an IOI and was not allocated any shares indicates that no one got more than 100 shares. In order to receive more than 100, all who entered an IOI would have had to receive 100.

The way Etrade does it is round robin thru all interested, 100 to each....the IPO update said that they were unable to allocate to all accts...therfore noone should have more than 100..
