We got a lot of interest the last time we made this available at this pricing. So much so we've created a separate website to promote these services and give more info:

Shardhost is a UK LTD company (reg 07679837) that has been providing hosting services since June 2011. We currently serve over 2500 clients. We own all of our VPS hardware.
All services are currently being offered out of our racks in Dallas, Texas (TierPoint DC with Colocrossing) and Buffalo, New York State (Colocrossing).
We've had a lot of interest in our Annual plans previously and are constantly asked to restock them so thought we'd apply this to as many of our services as possible.
