The mappings in snp130 are all directly from dbSNP.  I don't know why Entrez 
would not return all of the dbSNP items (but as a programmer, I wonder if 
Entrez needs to be updated for the latest dbSNP release, or if there is a 
keyword issue somewhere).  The dbSNP folks can give a more authoritative 
answer: [email protected]

Thanks for chiming in,
Angie
