Thanks Glen, I'll look into that. It sounds a little dicey though .. if
it's free I guess they've not guaranteed to you they'll carry on doing it.
So what happens the day they decide not to? Call me a cynic ..

The same is true of Web Services, but at least there's more than one site
offering the facility, and since you've already built the web services
infrastructure it should be easy to switch to another supplier.

Am I missing anything?

Cheers
