Just as a slight correction to that, it is now 5Gb of transfer per month for the same price. The changes were made yesterday.

Currently my site eats up close to 300 mb of space, and I have unlimmited bandwith, which is a plus. We are adding several new services when VB 2.0 comes out and will probably start using upward to 1 GB of space... But until I need a dedicated, I am willing to stick with this host...

When I do go dedicated, I would prefer to have it hosted than do it myself... Which host provides powerfull servers for a nominal cost?

I have unlimmited bandwith

nah you don't they still have limits they just hide them in the small print, CIhost especially.. do a search from them on any popular webhosting forum....

how much GB/month do you use now, i am interested to know what they are allowing at the moment.
