A company offering great prices now might chose to increase them later on when they have achieved market leader position and everyone is locked into their proprietary APIs. Don't assume that their offers will always remain as sweet as the bait candy that you taste right now.

If they sell hardware you have to replace it. Im not arguing against it, just pointing out that there really arent situations where you eliminate that possibility; just reduce the chances of it.
