Great news. A little concerned with: "Amazon EBS also charges $0.10 per 1 million I/O requests you make to your volume." How many I/O requests does your system make a day?

This was discussed earlier. Turns out, it can and does wildly vary based on usage scenarios. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=282528

Is there any good articles on using EC2? I've read about it, but haven't had the chance to get a firm grasp on it.
