Dreamhost and Bluehost seem to provide unlimited bandwith on their shared plans for around $9/mo. I was thinking of moving to them myself. But not sure if the shared hosting will meet your needs,

I've run into both those names in a negative context without even being a customer of either. Thanks for the suggestion, but those two aren't worth the risk :)

Aside: Wasn't Dreamhost the one who put an answerphone message from a distraught customer on their blog with an entry taking the piss? I tried to check, but I can't find any reference to it amongst the myriad other complaints...

Look up their reputation. You'll find them worse than another provider with the same price.

shared hosting is very limiting, if you want to do any real tinkering you will probably need a VPS.
