This stuff keeps changing

I had a First USA card. Then Bank One took them over--everything changed including the travel awards program. I had made my mind up to look for a new card for three reasons 2% additional currency surcharge by bank, limit on dollars charged to earn travel miles and now a new $49 dollar annual fee to use the travel miles rewards program in addition to a $49 fee for the card..YIKES>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>
Now I hear Bank One is being taken over by Chase....

I was going to look for a new card, maybe MBNA to get a better deal on travel rewards but don't know about Chase....

Whatcha think?
