I have been following Amazon news lately and two thing is this post got my attention. 1. The per-transaction fees can really start to hurt if you start to get traction Do you have any more information or example of the dangers inherent in this? 2. EC2 hosting in Europe Any possibility of this being in Ireland? This would remove some of the current high moral ground of localised backup providers (including ourselves) which runs along the lines of "We backup in Ireland" and could (or could it) provide physical access to data if required. What do you think? John As ever, great post. I have been following Amazon news lately and two thing is this post got my attention.

What do you think?
