I setup a so-called naked domain and pointed it at an Amazon S3 CNAME just fine.
I believe the big downside is that I'll never be able to use email on that domain because of the CNAME. Which, for me, wasn't a big deal.
Email works just fine because mail uses an MX record (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MX_record). (Sort of related: You can also CNAME the records that MX records point too.)
