I just rang this number.  I've started the process.  They're sending me 
the forms and I'll fill them in and send them back.  She confirmed that I'd 
be getting a checking account (called "Four Star").  There is no mimum, 
and no service fees balance.  I can get overdraft protection using a 
savings account.  If I open the savings account, I can get that ATM card 
which Adam mentioned in a previous message.

BTW: They asked how I had heard of them; I said it was mailing list I 
was on and mentioned the Money Magazine article.

my first impressions: it was easy.  they were helpful.  if all my 
transactions with them go that well, I will be very happy.

I'll keep you all posted as to what happens.
