Yeah, and with AppEngine, you can build an app, deploy it, and continue to hack on it, and improve it without having to pay any money, Heroku gives you 5 megs of space free, yeah? AppEngine's currently limit is a gig of storage space, 46.3 CPU hrs, 10gigabytes of incoming, and 10gigabytes of outgoing traffic PER DAY.
Both EC2 and Heroku cost you money as soon as you start to use them.
So, sure i will agree, it's easier to get up and running on Heroku if you're a vanilla Ruby dev. AppEngine's scaling is a lot more sensible economically imo.
And this absolutely not to knock Heroku, they are doing some really cool stuff. But for speculative projects, AppEngine is nice, and free for a lot of uses.
