Two different offers for converting BoA Visa cards to Barclays

I have two different USAir BoA cards. One is a Platinum and the other a Signature. Today I received two different mailers from Barclay. One has a customized web address for me to check out but only offers me 2,000 miles when I activate and use the card. The other lacks the customized website, but offers me 5,000 miles to activate that card. I wonder how many different offers are out there? I randomly tested a few names and I found that there are also 10,000 mile offers out there.

I already have a Barclay MasterCard, so I guess I'm going to have three now. Oh joy.

There was an interesting tidbit in the mailer. It says that they are planning to waive reward redemption fees for card holders. That would be a nice perk. They also imply that there will be 20,000 mile tickets available to card holders, which doesn't mean a lot to me, but might be useful to other folks.
