I'm using AWS (i.e., the online disk space portion) on a pretty regular basis for small online backups and automated synchronization between devices. Have been using it since Fall 08 and am very pleased. As for Elastic Computing (EC2), last year I kicked the tires on couple virtual computer images (AMIs such as FreeBSD, OpenSolaris, Win 2K3 Server, and I think Fedora or Ubuntu) to see how provisioning, installing and access worked. It was pretty slick and I was happy with the whole setup except for pricing (I very roughly estimated it at about $80/month for just the virtual computer footprint on the grid with no major traffic spikes). As with most things ymmv but I'm keeping an eye on Amazon for AWS and EC2 and other future projects... hth, C.G.
