I think many of us here are waiting for the Cash and Points program from Hyatt. If it is anywhere near competitive to Starwood's, then Hyatt points might be more valuable. Right now it's hard to get enough Hyatt points for a top hotel (22k at most of the places we like), but if we could use 8k plus $150 to stay at one of the PH (unlikely PHV since it's pretty packed anyway), we might get the card again and actually use it. But then again, why use the card when you get more points from the ShappireP card? They're going to have to up their game in order to get people to use the card more...
