This is merely a first pass that provides all of the operational features of DayTrader "classic", but also leverages the various _javascript_ libraries (widget, io, storage, etc.) within the Dojo toolkit to provide a better user experience. Eventually, I would like for this to serve as an addition to DayTrader 2.0 and would like feedback and other contributions on how we can evolve DayTrader to look less like a traditional browser-based, click-and-wait type application and more like a stand-alone app. I am by no means a _javascript_ or CSS expert, so any help, recommendations, etc. would be gratefully appreciated...
Thanks...

That definitely sounds like an attractive thing to benchmark to me!
As with the persistence options, etc. I think it would be best to be
able to run it both ways and see what you get with a traditional web
interface and compare that to an AJAX-ified interface.
Thanks,
