Even though I have discovered that other online banks are slightly more agressive with their APY for savings accounts, my APY for INGDirect just went up to 4.35%

I noticed today that Emigrant Direct has upped its APY to 4.65% for their American Dreams Savings Account. This matches HSBC Direct's APY. Unfortunately, my stupid Dutch bank that I continue to be fiercely loyal to, lags behind with their APY. Honestly, I know there's not much of a difference ...
