From what others have posted today, it's possible to receive the 2500 miles for simply opening up a Sharebuilder account, but so far there is no solid evidence that just opening up an account will count as a hit towards the tier bonus miles (3000 for 4 hits, an additional 7000 for reaching 8 hits, etc.). Unless, when you say your "Grand Slam bonus miles posted", you are referring the the tier bonus miles posting, and in such a way that you know your Sharebuilder counted as an actual hit?
