Some of those APIs are sort of odd, admittedly, and could be covering up eventual consistency under the covers (Route53 in particular springs to mind there!) Edit: And S3 and SimpleDB now expose more consistency than they did at launch.

DynamoDB encourages eventual consistency by charging .5 for each read capacity unit consumed on an eventually consistent read.

I consider consistency a bargain at twice the price :-)
