Yup, my mistake on the name of the card. It's an Extreme III, not Ultra
III. Hope I didn't cause too much confusion and googlizing out there.

Actually you can get it as a Visa gift card as well that is valid
anywhere. Adorama's rebate form still shows availability as a gift card
but some others (like B&H) don't so read the rebate carefully. Some
vendors will also give you an extra 10% if you take the rebate as a store
credit.

That's a dangerous place to work. My office is within walking distance of
B&H and the Apple store so my wallet trembles when I go out to lunch on a
nice day. :-)
