Costco is the way I went. $99 with two year contract, includes an extra year (2 total) manufacture warranty and rebate on the $35 set-up fee.
Costco researches their services and products to protect their membership consumers. In other words, they don't sell services or products that make their return line longer than their purchase/exit line.
Absolutely no negatives. You can still use your local service provider store (in my case, verizon) for walk-in support, without concerns or issues as to where you purchased the mini-moto DX computer/phone.
