I like the convenience of taking an AMI snapshot - but ideally I do no want to pay for the volume to be attached to my running instance.
Is there a way to save a snapshot instance to S3 and then launch from S3 without attaching a volume to the running instance - gaining the convenience of snapshots - without the running costs?
