For dedicated servers, I've been happy with Server Beach, although  
the least expensive box they offer at the moment is $129/month --  
Core 2 Quad with 4 GB of RAM.  They offer CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu and  
Red Hat, among other operating systems.

Their parent company, Peer1, does colocation, if that is what you  
want.  I would recommend a dedicated box, with its hardware  
replacement guarantee, though.  That has saved me a world of grief on  
at least one occasion.

I haven't tried to run sipXecs off a hosted box, but with either  
dedicated or colocated, you have complete control of the box -- I've  
installed an unsupported operating system on Server Beach's dedicated  
servers.

Cloud-based servers would be cheaper.  If you're willing to try them,  
Peer1 has its Zunicore offering.  Rackspace has been involved in some  
of the open source cloud projects.  With that experience, they might  
also be a good choice for cloud-based servers.  I haven't run a box  
at Rackspace in years, though.
