A number of people on Twitter suggested Goscomb as well and I've heard good things about Linode for general hosting. Still interested in opinions but I actually signed up with a dedicated server today, I got a really good offer that was to good to turn down. I'll be dropping VirtualBox on there and creating a machine with encrypted disks so there is still a chance local admins can get at the data but it is pretty much secured.
