It's similar to my Chase Freedom used with my CSP card.
I like using both to get status on airlines.

I agree, I think the forward is pretty hard to beat if you learn the system. Combining it with the premier or prestige to use TYP's at 1.25 or 1.33 cpp is the best value. I'd stick with the forward as long as the 5pts/$ at restaurants remains.
