Yep, Tiger had that offer a month or two ago as well, and
I took them up on it; already received the CF card, but 
the rebate takes longer.

Also note that the S&H charge is $9.95 since it comes via
UPS; there is/was no option to use USPS.  The kicker is
that it came in a box large enough to hold *two* loaves
of bread!!!  I complained that the CF card should have 
been packaged in a padded 3-1/2 x 5" manilla envelope, 
and that a USPS mailing option should be available.  Finally, it wasn't clear at the time if more than one CF card could quality for X number of rebates.

Unless my complaint has been acted upon, I'll no longer
make use of their $20 rebate offers which works out to
only $10 savings because of S&H.
