To be clear, I would probably wait a few days. Daniel Grackle responded to the very last comment I made some time ago. Reading and digesting now.
Off the cuff, it does seem strange that a new hosting provider hasn't been looked for a while (things happen you always have to recheck), and I'm not clear what happened to his startup skysheet.com (important because you want to know how everyone is getting their money).
Other answers were solid though. Thank you Daniel and I will post a follow up with reasonable questions if needed and drop it after that.
