One other option that might be a little cheaper:

Thawte WILL issue .foo.com certs.  They're more expensive than a
single cert, but I think it still comes to less than two certs from
Verisign.

Having used Thawte for all of our keys over the last few months, I am
VERY satified with their service.  We have renewals done in under 24
hours, and new keys are 72 hours MAX.

Best regards,
Zac Bedell
