Does anyone know (with certainty) of a credit card that has no exchange fee for charges in foreign currencies?

Re: credit card with no exchange fee?

Conde Nast Traveller had an article about this a number of months ago, but I can't find the article and it's probably out of date info anyways...

Rob, mind telling me your CC company? (through PM if you're not comfortable posting it here)
