Yup, but I don't want to pay more than ~75-80 cents per gigabyte, so I'll pass until the next good deal.

I keep waiting to see if the exact same one I already have goes on sale again. if it does, I'll probably pick up another and stripe them

Indeed. Picked up a 120GB OCZ Vertex 3 for myself last week, but one of my friends was outta town at the time and when he got back on Monday I sold it to him since I've been nagging him to up his computing game for a while, and an SSD is just the ticket. So now I'm back in the market, heh. Oh well

There's no cap on rewards, and you can make a payment every 3 days, so conceivably, you could run a half-dozen or more time your limit in the course of a month and earn rewards on all of it
Explaining please? Me confused

....but if you had a business that dealt with moving a lot of merchandise...

Ok gotcha, that makes more sense now. Although it sounds like you need a higher credit limit

^Oh believe me, I have a card with a substantially higher limit

But it only get's about 1% on everything. So for gas, food and Amazon purchases, it makes more sense to use the Amazon card.
