[ec2] 9.04

[David Bain]

While we're on the topic.

I've purchased a reserved instance. Assuming I launch an instance which
matches the specs (size and zone) of the reserve, am I automatically billed
at the reserve price?

 Also, would a second instance be billed at the reserve price also or would
I need to purchase a second reserved instance in order to benefit from the
pricing?
