    Yesterday Briefing was slow with Adobe earning data, The Fly was 7 minutes earlier.

    Strange, I allways thought Briefing is as quick as Fly.

    Try The Fly!
    Every once in a while they get a nice sleazy call out there, before DJ or Reuters, disseminated to the right people.

  9. personally i think briefing and fly are about even. fly seems to have a breaking news headline that comes out pretty early once in awhile whereas briefing hardly has any.

    i chose fly because i like their interface better although loading the news scroller takes forever and drains my computer's resources.

    if i had the desktop space, i'd probably get both since they are fairly cheap. but of course, you get what you pay for. i always get a laugh when a rumor pops up on flyonthewall and the rumor is obviously over 1 hour old based on the breakout on the chart.

    there calls are pretty good. they do follow up on each call and has very good technical reason behind there call. i will also try to subscribe to fly. i am looking for a reliabl service and at the same time a second opinion on technical calls.
