Hi David,
Can you try installing 2.3.0 in a virtualenv to see if you get the same error? I’m not seeing any issues with that version.

Does your image support such an instance type (t1.micro) ? If you try to run the image from the console, what instance types can you choose from?
I installed python-boto 2.3.0 and it seemed to initially work. If anything changes I will update this post. Thanks John!
Sorry, completely missed the version of boto. Personally I test all of the AWS modules against boto 2.5. I can confirm that the ec2 module does not work correctly with the version of boto you initially used.
I will definitely keep that in mind. Thank you.
