Starwood Lurker, here are my comments:
1) Yes 1 Starwood Preferred Guest Point = 6 HHonors points BUT you earn 10 Hhonors points for every $ (versus 2 for every $1 i SPG)!
2) In addition, you would earn 500 airline miles with HHonors!
So by my math a member of either program staying 3 nights at an average of $150 a night would earn:
HHonors - 4500 HHonors Points AND 500 miles
SPG - 900 SPG Points
What am I missing?

Anyone have any comments on the following observation:
"Our program also offers other benefits that are unmatched in the industry: for example, the fact that there are no blackout dates or capacity controls on Preferred (free) Night Awards."
Just curious,
