However, GigaOm is the only source for this, so I'm not sure how real it
is; anyone know?

Seems like it happened:

http://aws.typepad.com/aws/2013/11/amazon-rds-for-postgresql-now-available.html

(Thanks to Patryk for pointing it out).

Also, it's already live here: https://aws.amazon.com/rds/

Yay.
