Read the fine print. I believe if you cancel a card before the due date of the bill that includes the annual fee they'll not charge you for it. Also some have reported success at getting substantial bonus miles if they agree to not cancel the card, which could be worth a shot as well depending on the fee and how many miles are offered.
