My local Wachovia, I told them I was going to pull one of my accounts unless they could do something for me. The above is what he came back with, I had hoped for a bit more.

GREAT ... Were all almost back in business again ! ** Money is actually getting little more expensive... All those nice, new homes in and the not so nice in Havasu will start a lose'in proprietors in a few quarters ( BTW: Boats will be had a lil cheaper too ! ) ....
A little known banking law allows you to invest in a CD and withdraw any or all of you money WITHOUT penalty after as little three weeks. I have two accounts in one year CD's at 4.5 and 5.2%. I have access to them at anytime.
Good Luck!

Seems pretty good if that is what your risk threshold is. The link above shows some competing jumbo 3 month CDs. Looks like you have about a .25 advantage to most.
Why lock your money up for any time period? Unless the rates are 1-2 % higher than the savings rate. Here's a link.

Do you have a link to that law? I'd like to see it. Thanks.
