A comment on Amazon Route 53 - A New DNS Service from AWS.

The pricing is $1/zone and 1 billion (!!) queries per month.

Which seems quite good for a globally hosted DNS service.

Only potential limitations are that its listed as "beta" and that as far as I can tell you have to use the scripts in the Route 53 developer tools (or write your own) to manipulate the zone and do the initial set up.

The pricing is $1/month and $0.50 per million queries for the first billion queries.

My mistake - you are correct.

Its a shame - it would be nice for them to throw in a the first billion!
