7 points and no comments yet, would it be that lots of people want to use scalr, but no one has yet?
i am that, want to and plan too, but not yet
Looked at it again today and not seeing much activity, even on the Intertubes.

RightScale has been getting plenty of activity, though -- so it's a bit surprising.

The problem with Scalr is you need to run several EC2 instances...if you can afford that (and need that) you're probably cool paying $500 for RightScale's fee service.
720 dollars a month for 10 instances running consistently for a month on scalr. Why pay monthly for the setup.
There will be a pay version of Scalr released soon for a very small monthly fee for those who don't want to install and configure it themselves.
