I've been mostly happy with unixshell.com which uses free, open-source Xen, but there have been problems and the performance isolation is definitely not perfect. The staff recommend that those of us running production servers migrate to their sister company tektonic.net, which uses the commercial Virtuozzo, and I believe people there are pretty happy.
My plan was to migrate my VPS there quite soon, but this thread really inspired me; I didn't realize server rental prices had dropped so much. After much searching I opened an account today with server4you.com; my considerations were hardware, (burstable) bandwidth and network, and price. I'm pretty happy with what I found and I'm busy setting it up now, which is quite exciting seeing as I've never used Fedora Core before, nor Plex. There are some other options too but that's what I chose. Anyway I'll be able to give an update in a few months if people are interested and remind me. In short: if you pay annually, the package I chose gives you for $99/mo: Intel P4 3.4 Ghz, 1024MB RAM, 160GB HDD, 1500GB bandwidth and includes Plesk (100 domains) for free. It's on a Tier-1 network, speeds so far are great - X seen with VNC over an ssh tunnel is pretty responsive (of course I'm using a limited colour palette, compression, etc..).
