Can't believe nobody's posted this yet, but, a new feature as gone live with Microsoft, that allows you to purchase Microsoft Points and have them applied to another user's Xbox Live Account. This is a terrific feature for those who have been waiting for something like this, and didn't want to give out their precious credit card information even though you may have a buddy who needed points for something a Marketplace download of some kind.

So now, if for instance, I want to play Spades with my buddy Kazie, but Kazie only has 300 MS Points on his account, I can go to the weblink, purchase however many points I want, and have them applied to HIS account, via his Windows Live ID that is associated with his Gamertag. Simple! In fact, we've already done it LOL.... |

Too bad it's U.S. only.. Points are so much cheaper here that you could make a fortune reselling them to Europeans.. |
