my suggestion to you is to try www.webhostingtalk.com

you can post your requirements up there and you can also read and learn about
cheap hosts...which ones to stay away from and which ones to gravitate
towards.

i've found the only two hosts i've used through this site. both did a good job
and the only reason i switched was because the webmail at the first host was on
an oddball port that i couldn't access through my company's firewall.
