How many instances do you run? At $17.52 saved per year for m1.small that means you must be running over 10k instances to save enough for another full-time dev or two... if your devs are located in SF area.
We're currently spending about $20k/month on EC2 and are about to migrate a bunch of our colos over. Between what we are spending and what we're budgeting to spend with our new architecture, we're looking at a couple devs/year savings (Victoria, BC)
