I´m trying to find out more on the possibilities with GeoClouding and PostGIS. I was experimenting with AWS RDS feature with an Free Tier account, and now I´ve been charged a large amount of money...holy ****. I might misunderstood something here. I´ve been charged for theese RDS-sevices (which i thought was inlcuded in the 750 free hours per month):

Amazon RDS Service for PostgreSQL ($0.910 per RDS Second Gen Extra Large Multi-AZ Instance hour (or partial hour) running PostgreSQL)

Amazon RDS Service Storage ($0.238 per IOPS-month of Multi-AZ Provisioned IOPS and $0.298 per GB-month of Multi-AZ Provisioned IOPS Storage)

Theese were tested in 2 regions: EU (Frankfurt) and US West (Oregon) Region.

I´ve only set up an empty DB-instance, and now they wanna charge me around 700 dollars.

So the question is: Did I misunderstood/didn´t understand the "contract" well enough or do I have any chance to avoid this? The bill hasn´t been charged from my card yet. It might be my own fault, but it´s jungle of texts and if you´re not from a country with english as your main language, then it´s confusing. I could really need some help on this one. Thanks.
