My inclination is to decline the honor. Anyone have a different take on the Barclays offer?
Is it an "Arrival" card? If so, there is a thread on it somewhere - I'd link it but they re-organized the credit card threads and I didn't see it handy. A bunch of the blogs also list the details.

If your offer is the Arrival card then yes, it is points, not miles. The value varies significantly based on redemption.
