something wrong with the 'reserved' prices?

PostgreSQL RDS micro instance falls to $0.009 per hour when reserved, while MySQL falls to $0.016 per Hour.

If it isn't a typo, Postgres reserved instances are 1/5 of the on-demand price, which doesn't seem correct.

up-front price is largely different between the two. psql looks to be 50% cheaper when reserved for 3 years. weird
