Always Looking for Cheap Internet Brokers

With Farsight's new pricing coming in January, many of us are looking for good cheap brokers. Those of us in penny stocks get killed with the $0.02 added to every share over 1000. This thread is to discuss other options open to those of us who trade on the internet. Many of the posts are going to be hearsay so alway check things out for yourself before opening a new account. The hearsay is not meant to mislead but to allow discussion of what is good and/or bad about a particular brokerage. Good service, cheap prices, low minimums are all a plus.
