Another "cheap" power switch may be:

http://www.hw-group.com/products/ip_watchdog/index_lite_en.html

Made by a Czech Republic (= right side of the atlantic :) company,
allows power switching of two servers. Requires you to write a fencing
script and connect power output cables from this device to power
switches in the servers. Again - never tried, but it's around 3188 Czech
crowns, which is approx. $187.
