Hi Wayne,

Amazon doesn't price EC2 resources any different based on how they're 
being used.  EC2 pricing can be very complex as they charge for the 
platform (small, large, X-Large), storage, network bandwidth, etc.  They 
have a pricing calculator here:

During the beta period there's no charge for using the OpenSolaris AMI.
