Barclays (40k US)
Chase Sapphire (50k)
Amex PRG (75k)
Amex SPG (30k)
Got instant approval on them all except the Sapphire, due to having 3 Chase cards already.
Whew.
Congrats on the instant approval. You can also apply for the Citi AA Business cards in 65 days.

I just started and did the same Top 4 (Both Citi AA, Barclays US, Sapphire Preferred). Now I'll sit tight until I meet these minimum spends and after 6 months (Jan, 2012), I'll go after whatever the big deal is then. The Sapphire Preferred is an awesome card for me since I spend a good amount eating out and it is 2:1 for each dollar spent at restaurants! I plan on making that my everyday card after these spends.
Don't forget to sign up for Rewards Dining to get even more AA miles. I just signed up for AA Dining and Rapid Rewards Dining! =]
