Quote from toshiba:

question to IB

You have recently promised to reduce forex margin to 2%, could you tell please when you do it?

hopefully within a week (you may also see a welcome surprise on the minimum commission)
 
Quote from def:

The downsides:
- piggy backing and/or hogging of the limited number of demo login's to view free quotes if you don't have an account
- draining of resources
- complaints about poor data if we decide to bring the demo system down
- programing time (albeit probably not much).

The positive:
- a good simulator
- easy comparison to other brokers

I think the utilization of resources would be the deal killer for the immediate future.

In the forex world many brokers just publish their live quotes on their web page. You may want to consider that approach it should not take much effort

Here are two examples:

Hi 168,

Open the account online, get it approved, then transfer funds. Cannot transfer funds till you have an account to transfer them to :D
