You can use above example to plug in your real tax bracket percentages to get your own number. It's a bit difficult to show the calculation of interest on here but you can find interest calculator on web.

3m : 4.15%
6m : 4.56%
1y : 4.68%
Advantages:
1) can bid direct on treasurydirect.gov at auction (avoid broker and banks / fees when buying and holding to maturity).
2) marketable by transferring to a broker dealer and selling it in the open market (relatively tight bid/offer and penalty is based of the market yield at the time vs CDs where you pay penalties)
3) EXEMPT AT THE STATE AND LOCAL TAX LEVEL!
For those of us in high tax states like NY it can mean you save 12% in tax on your interest.
Edit, found several easy to follow Youtubes videos that explains it all.

We'll help you sell the CD at the current market price or you may choose to request a bid online. If you decide to sell, you'll receive the bid price plus accrued interest. The price may differ from the original purchase price of CD, which may result in a gain or loss.

I just got one at 5.2% for 8 years through my Fidelity IRA. They were being offered in $1000 increments.
8 years is too long
Yes that was 2 years ago so I can't comment on their website and application now. I would guess, and hope, it's much better. They only had 1 direction to go.
5%, 7 months
I expect a minimum of 5% to 5.25% Fed rate in 2013. No rate reduction until 2024. Fed should stay the course with 75 in Dec. No need to jump on CD at this time, especially if you live in a high tax state like CA or NY.
