Hi all,

Trying to buy some vonage stock tomorrow morning. I have sharebuilder but I don't know if it will be available tomorrow. Is there another place that allows instant transfers so I could open an account now and buy tomorrow at nine thirty?

Doubtful. Many will allow a "rapid account opening" and you can fund your account immediately, but you typically will not be able to buy non-marginable (this includes IPO's) securities.

Well, you could try opening the thing tonight and then wiring in funds tomorrow as soon as the bank opens. Wires can get processed in as little as 6 hours. It would be available by the end of the trading day.
