Oh... and with the rewards program if you do it right you can turn your rewards points into shopping at hundreds of online places or into miles for various airlines. Additionally, when you use the Amex platinum, you will have access to places like the WorldPerks Club (NorthWest) or Delta's and Continental's equivalents when you buy your ticket through their travel site.
I'm working on getting that Amex Black card... maybe by 2005 Internext! lol
I bet Mr. Fiction has one...
