Scottrade is what Im using right now. Cheap trades. Only problem is that they don't do electronic bank withdrawls so you either have to mail them a check or take one to one of their branches. Other than that I haven't had any problems.

on Scottrade I've been pleased with them, they are supposedly working on electronic deposits, according to my local branch manager this may happen later in the year, could be just blowing smoke so as not to lose my business though.

Either of you using their scottradeELITE software with level II quotes?

I think I can start using it now that I have the min balance required, and I'm sure I can make the 10 trades a month so that it's free.

Yes, I love the elite software, a very useful utility. You might need a margin account or have enough settled cash to be able to make 10 trades in 20 days, since you'll be running into the 3 day fund settlement problem if all of your cash is being used for trades.
