Having just jumped from Google to Nameheap this is more than mildly frustrating.

edit: apparently this is the result of Verisign putting up their wholesale prices

I signed up at gandi.net earlier this year. I even read their Wikipedia, which said they merged with another company in February. Still went ahead, because they had email included in the cheap domain name. A month after I got the mail they'll be increasing prices too. Not sure if I'll go somewhere else now, or if I'll just start paying for email (4€/month or something)

What a hilariously and refreshingly honest company! I don't think I want to join in the beta phase yet, but I'll definitely keep it in mind and will check back in the future.
