Well we are in the middle of summer and there has been no announcement on pricing for Microsoft Azure.  I think that the pricing should have been released long ago.  I doubt Microsoft had planned Azure without doing some financial analysis and thus determining what could be charged.  Many companies, including my own, need cloud computing for cheap scalability and global reach but the longer the release date and pricing details slip the more I have to consider moving to another cloud platform.

I have been looking at this page for too long.
