A 2 server cluster will set you back $247/mo at Server Matrix:

$99/mo 2.4 P4 1,200GB, 1GB RAM, 80GB HD ($199 setup)
$99/mo 2.4 P4 1,200GB, 1GB RAM, 80GB HD ($199 setup)
$49/mo Load Balancer ($25 setup)

Or EV1 can do a 2 box Celeron cluster for $218/mo:

You may not be able to justify that for a 70k TGP, but
if you're also doing other stuff it might be an option.
MySQL can't be clustered/load balanced.
