I haven't heard anything but glowing reports about Amazon's hosting up until now. Your posts are gold! Won't they add more capacity to each zone (including zone US-east 1b) soon though? Virtual servers do make so many cool things (like autoscaling) possible, but we went through hell at Hcareers migrating to the virtual servers at our parent company. One of the biggest problems I kept running into was the poor clock synchronization. You'd be amazed at how many things that can f-up. Wow, a real eye opener.

EC2 traffic within the same availability zone is not charged. Spreading out across different availability zones also increases operating cost: you pay for inter-zone networking traffic.
