It seems that the points turn into miles if you so desire for a whopping $0.0006 per point or all of $30 for 50k miles.

Question is: Does anybody have experience with this card/offer? My gut says to take it and run! Fellow FT'ers please convince me either way.

Thank you.
Note of caution from the wise through experience - read the fine print. If you have another AMEX card, they will not waive the fee. Which makes one wonder why they target current AMEX card holders
