Amazon EC2

Amazon Web services divison is making interesting product releases.
After Amazon S3(Simple Storage Service), Amazon SQS (Simple Queue Service)
the company released Amazon EC2.
Basically it is a virtual server hosted for you in the amazon cloud. You pay for the instance hours and bandwidth that you actually consume. Integrating with SQS and S3 it provides an compelling alternative to managing your own petty infrastructure.

Winning the mindshare of developers should be the next logical step. I want my free developer account and some nice tutorials to get me started with in Java or some decent scripting language.
