My understanding is that this requires a 2-year commitment, so even if you get the decidely gimped first year for the $40, you're shackled into paying the full $400 the next year. Starts to sound like less of a deal when you factor in that.

Prophet doesn't take "Off Duty" as an option when he needs to get somewhere!
