<execution for a telephone broker is slower, almost by definition. You have to call the guy, connect, chat about the weather(?) while he is looking up your account and then place a trade >

Tell that to the e-trade clients. "You have to turn on the computer, log on the internet, get to their site, put in your trade, wait a few minutes for the system to tell you that it is broken, kick and break the computer, call Dell and wait for three days to get the new computer, log on again, repeat process one more time. Commit suicide like impristine."
