A point of clarification...the California law does not allow an expiration date, but it does allow for maintenance fees starting 1 year after the purchase date of the card. No idea how that transfers across state lines with differing laws, but I'm betting that practically, it sticks with whatever is the law in the state of purchase (I doubt the databases bother to track and adjust the ammount based on where the purchase is being made).
