Paid down your utiliti down would increase some more points there.

I would go for amex green.

Discover and Chase. Apps them all then garden i guess.

I found it weird when i request my capital one mutiple times and they wont budge me a pennie for my credit limit increase but after 2 months new account like Discover,Amex report. They increase me from 500 to 2k. One day waiting before executive call me.

Lyles Vegas, were you instantly approved or did you have to recon? I received conditional approval for a Chase Freedom last week after recon. 703 fico. Only bad is a BK from 2003 that is falling off next year.

Thanks everyone for your advice.  I just sent an e-mail to the executive office for Capital One this morning.  A few hours later I recieved a phone call from the Executive Office.  The rep stated they should be able to expand my credit limit and give me rewards on my current card.  So, I will hold and see what comes of the request.  If nothing comes to pass with Capital One, I am moving them to the sock drawer.  I'll let you all know what happens.

One more question...Will my one late utility payment even factor in when getting a revolver?

So, I took the plunge and went on an App spree and got the following:

1.) Capital One to increase my limit 1k

2.) AMEX Green Charge Card

3.) Discover IT (6k limit!!)

Thanks for the advice everyone!
