Me too. I'd love to use Heroku/AppFog/whatever but there always seems to be a snag (no websockets, no UDP traffic, bleh).
Might have to try Nodejitsu one of these days but the pricing kind of pains me when I think about how many low-traffic node apps I can host on a $5 DO.

I'm going through the exact same transition right now. $20/month is more than the cert itself.

#17I'm going to try modulus.io later on today.
Obviously I don't have an opinion yet but my reason for giving it a try is that I've been told you get a free database instance in the same data center as your node instance, which is obviously good from a latency point of view.

I'm very curious modulus. Anyone else have any experience using them?
