i heard online that Emigrant had some sort of signup reward going on but I forget what... supposedly if u put it all together it was higher than ING.. saw it at Epinions actually

on another note, I was curious if anyone knew if the Greenpoint 'Free Checking' account (the lowest of them w/ no interest!) was compatible w/ these internet banks. I read that if the checks carried the line "Deposit through" (something "through") on them, then the said checking account could not be electronically connected w/ the NON-brick and mortar banks. Greenpoint bank was recently bought by Northfork bank. If someone is using Greenpoint and has connected their checking w/ these world internet banks, it would make me feel a lot safer and i wouldn't be opening a checking account for nothing. hope i posted this in the right place, sorry for the noobish quetions. thanks =)
