Thanks to UltArc, I will be saving $19 on my first month of service. I dragged my feet too long and missed my opportunity to save 15%, but at least I will be saving $20/mo compared to StraightTalk.

The new Moto X has great reviews, and I'm sure it will be more than capable for my wife's needs.

Strangely, I was charged $20 in taxes at checkout. No idea what is being taxed since Oregon has the lowest cellular taxes, and my first month of service is only $6. I've sent an email to Republic, but if you have any idea what I could be charged $20 in taxes for, I'd be curious to know.
