Has anyone else gotten info on the New Everyday Rewards Cashback card from National City? Seems like an okay deal if you just use it for everyday purchases. This is the rebate roundup:
4% on ALL gasoline purchases
3% on ALL utilities (phone,electric,cable, etc.)
2% on ALL groceries and Restaurants/Fast Food
1% on ALL Home Improvement
0.25% on ALL else
So as long as you don't use the ALL else category it seems like a higher cash back rate then most other cards.
Any Thoughts or better options?

This might be a good one to use as a backup to something like the SPG Amex. Most of my big spending items in the "all else" category would be stuff like travel - places that would take the SPG Amex. The higher-yielding rewards are in categories that sometimes don't take Amex, so it could be a nice fit.
I do too much other spending in the "all else" category to make this my primary card.
