Where are AWS data center locations listed?

I'm failing at Google search today. Is there a page that lists geolocations of the various Amazon AWS server farms?

I want to use this data to pick the appropriate farm for a client on a web app, CDN-style.

(This isn't programming, but it's for the purpose of programming, and I thought it would be useful to have this question answered for public consumption.)

Very late to the party, but in case anyone else has the same question, we've done some work to map AWS regional data centers by the fastest connection to each country (and state in US):

The code used to this has been open sourced:
