It won't go away it might improve may be something like hourly billing and auto scaling features may be implemented but ya many people sometimes just want the thing to work!.
TBH i feel this is really amazing currently WHMCS just isn't feasible for Dedicated Servers and Collocation providers on the other hand Hostbill and UberSmith are damn costly for SMB's. So having such a service will be really great.
+1 for CodeAnyWhere. Its a damn good IDE and since its a Cloud Based one i find it more easy to work it while travelling.
Like their DevBox feature and the remote FTP/SSH is the first thing i used to see mainly in any local based IDE.
