One other possibility -- that I didn't see, off hand-- is that if you use it to buy a web cert.-- either thru Mypoints (where you will then earn points for buying it) or thru some other source, you then have a 'credit card' (for it acts like a 'real mastercard') that you can use to buy products (gift certs in many cases, if you want to then redeem them for more partners) for AOL/AA merchants (does not have to be in the name of the person buying) or clickrewards (to transfer to any airline). This is very useful for the 20/20.
If you are buying multiple machines, and it works to buy them one at a time, then you can buy/earn the certs. and have them sent to different e-mail addresses (if sent to same they will combine them). You can then 'pick them up' for different people (your kids, parents, etc). You can set up forwarding addresses for any name/address combination and have them forward to your address, so you are the one picking them up. Then you can use them to register in various plans (like TWA avaitors shop) in the person's name and get the miles.
Just my thoughts on it.</font>
WebCertificate charges a fee for each purchase so you have to make sure that potential benefits outweight the fee...
