No expectation it's there in the 1st response. Amazon might take minutes to fire up a node far enough to get an IP.
Oddly, if you terminate a node before it's completely up and has an address, it'll immediately obtain one. But it's useless, since your node is then shutting down.

I note that according to the spec when creating an instance an XML representation of that instance should be returned immeditately... however, on ec2, at least on its web console, it doesn't assign the public address until it is out of "pending" status ?
So should we not expect public addresses to be set until the server is ready?
[IH] to keep the responsiveness, such cases of async data should be considered as state (this doesn't qualify as statistics) and be polled/listened for.
