FCNB has a decent reputation. I have one of their unsecured accounts for about a year. It is true that they will not report a secured card as secured. They are also pretty good at reporting on all three CRA's. If you have the money, go for it.
I have their Spiegel/NN card. They are generous with credit line, but interest rate is too high for me now. I was happy to get it at first, though
