I like to see a comparison page on Fidelity vs Etrade services, fees, support etc.

I personally use Fidelity and Scottrade. Fidelty has tons of investing tools. Scottrade is cheap if you just want to perform online trading. Scottrade doesn't have much analysis tools.
Scottrade is $7 per trade and I think Fidelity recently lowered to $8 per trade.
However, if you do not plan on trading often, then I recommend sharebuilder.com (http://www.sharebuilder.com/). There are cons with this since the the trade normally happens once a week so you can't really time it well. But its good for young investors that want to get their feet wet in the market.
I hope that helps.

Consider putting Scottrade in the mix if you do not need much advice for your account.
