Question for all Platinum Etrade users:

Is Etrade still providing early notification for IPO's? I got the notice for Marketwatch.com and got 100 shares, since then I have had no advanced notice. Are they sending to email address or is it being sent (the notice) to Etrade inbox? I would really like to know - perhaps they have the wrong email address for me or something like that. I my view this early notice is the biggest saving factor for Etrade. Anyone with info would be appreciated!

Thanks!
Robert Duncan

Softbank purchased their shares in a private placement last summer. They can't sell under Rule 144 until they've held the shares for at least one year unless EGRP files a registration statement covering those shares. I'm pretty sure they haven't.
