True on the VAT - called GST at 10% in Australia......

... but, it looks like you don't trade the UK or Euro stocks?

If you did wouldn't eS be obligatory?

What I am saying is, if we want our local exchange and want to move 
around between Asia, Europe and the US wouldn't eS be the only choice 
(add exchanges for the same base fee).

IQ seems to be for those who have settled on the US or Canada and 
aren't going anywhere else.

To me it is not worth the hassle of changing providers - I settled on 
eS so that I can roam freely.
