Smokin' Aces Walmart Exclusive

Does anyone know what the exclusive is?
I see their website that it is a "side-by-side" packaging, but it does not mention it being another DVD.

Anyone have info on this edition?

I have been holding out on buying this DVD cuz I have a sneeking suspicion that by years end we will have an unrated/extended edition of this film, but if Wal*mart has a cool bonus disc, I might pick it up now.

If you care about stuff like this:
I picked up the Best Buy exclusive with the playing cards.
The DVD actually comes in a cardboard box, which houses the DVD and the playing cards.
The playing cards are very cool, much better than I expected --
each of the 4 suits has a different character on the card (1 character per suit), and the card color matches the background color for the character (for example, the Georgia Sykes (Alicia Keys) cards are yellow to match her background on the DVD cover.

Does anyone else get the feeling that there will be an unrated/extended edition of this film coming out by the end of the year?

Is the DVD case inside the box sealed and UPCd? I'd love to keep the exclusive and gift the DVD.

I mean, most of us are savvy enough to hold out for announcements concerning extended editions but I hate that this news isn't more readily available.
It is a scummy thing to do from the film companies.

I appreciate the link. I had a hunch but now I can rest easy knowing it is fact.

I don't mind buying a directors cut, because I enjoyed the theatrical so much. So I'll just get both.
