On the one hand, you're totally right about the annoucements. On the other hand, the names they give their AWS products are pretty mystifying. AWS Snowball?

AWS Snowball is a play on AWS Glacier. Glacier is the slow moving practically frozen storage system. Snowball takes the same stuff and hurls it rapidly to a destination. Pretty slick.
