Metro is about to announce an long list of places where you can buy AND LOAD SmarTrip cards using installed machines. Previously, you could only purchase cards with no value* and then add value at a train station. No longer.
*Correction: Metro now says the $10 cards have been available since Dec. ($5 for the card, $5 value). Thanks "emmzee" for the heads up. The add value terminals are new, Metro says.

You've been able to buy SmarTrip cards at CVS's for the normal $10 - $5 for the card and $5 value on the card - for 5 months now: http://www.wmata.com/about_metro/news/PressReleaseDetail.cfm?ReleaseID=2375. You've also been able to add value at the stores.
According to Metro the loading feature is new.
