apa guy's review: 
I was initially denied online for this card...called the backdoor number...was asked a few questions (income, asking about long passed baddies)....subsequently approved with $1,500 limit!
FICO scores at time of app: EQ 628, EX 626, TU 623.
Don't let the guideline score be your discouragement where applying for this card is concerned. They look at the WHOLE picture - especially payment history (no lates is crucial).

That is great! I was just recently approved as well for this card 09/28/2011, my TransUnion score was 691 at the time and they started me out at $1,300.00 credit line! So you scored BIG with this card! Congratulations!

Thank you Patrick!
Aside from the 6/12 months no financing ($999 and under/over 999$) with Apple and $0 annual fee, are there any other benefits with this particular card I should know about? [Not that those aren't enough! :)]
