Purchasing IPO's FROM online trade houses

When initial public offerings take place online trading houses such as E*Trade have been
offering limited quantities of stock at or near the initial price.

Will this practice continue? If so, will it further distinguish "full service" online trade houses
from "discount" online companies?

By purchasing stock from these online trade houses does one receive an unfair advantage to
others who purchase via the regular secondary markets (Nasdaq)?

Just a few thoughts & questions from someone drowning his sorrows in the first mug of
coffee of the day. ;-) Drew.
