Azure *could* really help the little guy

I'm dying to know what the smallest unit for the consumption based pricing model will actually cost. Amazon costs almost $100 / mo to run a website on their cheapest server (regardles of whether you get 1 hit per month or 1 million). If Azure can fix that so the little guy could literally host a site or webservice and pay as little as $1 / month), they will truely be providing a HUGE service to cloud computing. Until then all the milliions of "little guys" out there are stuck with shared (non-scalable) hosting.
