@Tony why hasn't anyone from TP-LINK responded to these requests. These are valid and should be responded to. Unless there is another avenue to obtain information. Your phone support for some time now has been indicating released to USA but can not say where. This product release date to USA has passed. Has the product been canned. Please provide the reason for the delays and updates.

@Limey I have it on Good Authority the X90 and the Costco-only AX5700 are the same, hardware-wise. When comparing specs the only easily discernable diff is the probable lower-price pointed Costco packaged version appears 'throttled', if you will - @ the 5GHz-1 end down an Mb ( but, see below* ). I could have missed some minor detail, however the processor (1.5 GHz Quad-Core CPU), et al appears exactly the same. ( Note that Costco's site specs state the AX5700 2.4 GHz band = 674 Mbps but that's probably a CostcoTypo ( see what I did there ); what you see below was pasted from TP-Link pages for each product )
AX5700
5 GHz: 3843 Mbps (802.11ax, HT160)
5 GHz: 1201 Mbps (802.11ax)
2.4 GHz: 574 Mbps (802.11ax)
AX6600
5 GHz: 4804 Mbps (802.11ax, HT160)
5 GHz: 1201 Mbps (802.11ax)
2.4 GHz: 574 Mbps (802.11ax)
The same Good Authority advised, as opposed to waiting for the X90 more than the long 10 months since announced back on Jan 6th, "As for the difference between the X5700 and X90 it does appear the 5GHz1 network is slightly slower maximum link rate, *but that may just be on paper. They are hardware wise the same. So If you can get the X5700 now I would highly recommend it."
I know my source and their expertise. Our Costco AX5700 2-Banger is on the way.
