It was not until the next morning did I realize the humor in the whole situation...

Yes, I was living in Hoboken, NJ at that time -- I remember it very clearly, as I knew it was a quake when it hit!:eek: (No doubt due to my previous experiences in CA!:rolleyes:)

Thanks. I see the logic behind it, but it just bothers me that there's not a separate line item for cost of commissions.

Also, commisssions are not something that they want you to be able to easlily see broken out.

I'm on Android and BlackBerry, and I have a growing group of friends using Android. I don't know anyone anymore who is using a Windows Mobile device.

Gee SSullivan, I know we haven't seen each other in a while in person, but to forget about me so soon!! (IE I have a Windows Mobile Device)

I might be interested in helping your partner dispose of his phone with proper compensation of course. ;)

Yes, I get trade confirmation emails and notices on the site, but I was thinking more along the lines of something that adjusts for the stock's performance when looking at your holdings in real time.

This complaint of mine will cease to be a problem once I can start to afford to buy larger amounts of shares...I'm only complaining because the small amounts I bought have gone up but not enough yet to recover the commission.

Yes, I understand your 'issue' -- you need to stop looking at it - non-stop!;):D I hope you have a strong 'stomach' for the turbulence!;)

I really should go train some people, since that's why I'm here. Boo.

Later Box.

This is my hope. Delilah was quite nice in taking all the claim info over the phone and I have a claim number to which I will be faxing all the paperwork tomorrow. It can take up to three weeks for a claim to process. Just enough time for me to stress over which new netbook to get. :D

It could go fast than that!^ I can't imagine that any 'repair' would be worthwhile vs. the cost of a new netbook!:confused::rolleyes:

I've been happy with my Dell Mini 10v (running Snow Leopard).

One interesting tidbit - with the Dell 802.11n upgrade, my router sees the Mini better than my Macbook when they're both in the same place.

Gotta be more productive here, too!:rolleyes: Later!
