yahoo won't cut it for me, I like your suggestion of a website(free) for free US, foreign pre market open numbers (kind like a free squakbox ala internet). I work at night but I have access to internet and cable TV and I like some suggestions on websites to use. TV channels are iffy - sometimes I get bloomberg but the hours are crazy there and filled with infomercials....
