currently more trouble than its worth simply attempting to evaluate. racking up costs for unsuccessful and exceedingly complex attempts at access. time spent is not a justifiable business ‘expense’. invested over 10 hours at $x.00 with unsuccesful evaluation of one nevermind the many jump boxes available. not quite ready for prime time I think.

Could it be simplified down to: get your AWS credentials, type them into a web form, then see a list of *human-readable* product names (like "WordPress 2.7" not "something/something/wordpress1-1-1.manifest") and in one more click have it launch. A good product to look at is FogCreek's CoPilot service, which managed to get shared VNC setup down to about three clicks.
