well, 'ping amazon.com' is not returning from two different locations for me. 'ping google.com' on the other hand is just as reliable as always. smugmug.com is also down, for me, which i seem to recall heavily uses the amazon services. maybe its some local routing issues.

Amazon's uptime is not that great. In fact, Amazon is probably one of the worst run "engineering" companies around. They hire bright people (generally) they just don't make them managers.
Before I left, my manager (after a reorg) was a totally incompetant jerk whose prior training was a degree in "criminal justice". He knew nothing about software development, and had been at amazon his whole career- 7 years managing programmers.
I am amazed that they have only a few days of downtime a year.
I wouldn't be using S3 myself, except that (contrary to advertisements) its not run on the same "proven" infrastructure as their ecommerce platform-- but a new one built by a seperate team, and that team isn't hobbled by the incompetance that has built up over the years on the ecommerce engineering side.
