I'd be pretty surprised if they were going live with this without being able to deliver, especially since this is likely to be very popular with people using EBS for databases under fairly consistent loads. It's one thing for I/O to suck when they're not actually promising anything, but it's quite another when you're very specifically paying for a performance guarantee...
