Question
Targeted from WAMU (The Product Number is 226F2S--Phone Number 800.219.5198 www.getmyvisa.com):
PUSHBACK, you're pre-approved for Washington Mutual Visa Platinum® Card

Get up to 10% cash back on gas for six months*
* And earn up to 5% back on everyday purchases when you use your Visa card at the grocery store, dry cleaners, drugstore or gas station and up to 1% back on purchases everyplace else*
* No interest on purchases until May 1, 2008
by simply transferring a balance of at least $100*
* 9.99% APR on balance transfers
-----------------
The tiers on the gas rebate are pretty good:
0–$1,000 5.5%
$1,001–$2,000 6%
$2,001–$4,000 8%
$4,001+ 10%

Answer
If you spend $1750 on gas within the 6 months, you'll earn $100 in savings, which is roughly the same amount of award you get for signing up with a credit card that has no annual fee.
That means you have to spend a little over $290 in gas every month, which is about $71 a week. If you're the only one who uses this card and you drive an average sedan with an average commute, it's very unlikely you'll even achieve the amount of 'sign up bonus' you actually should be getting.
Otherwise, the 5% rewards for everyday purchases is nice since other companies (Citi, Chase) decided to do away with it.
edit: i mean 5% cash back, not rewards.

getmyvisa webpage apparently requires a reservation number; without it, the page is useless.
