Interesting. Not to get into a VPS debate, but I now pay $42 per month ($20+($265/12 initial Reserve cost) for a reserved EC2 instance that even with my whole Plone setup (nginx, varnish, haproxy, Zeo) I still have on average 1.3 Gig available memory. Everyone should spend a weekend setting one up - it would cost you a few dollars literally to setup an instance for a weekend and then terminate it to learn the EC2 process and determine if it's a good fit. And S3 storage is so cheap it's almost silly.
