You'll probably still get periods when your service is slower than other times, because you're sharing the network either way.
Anyway, I recommend Softlayer. A bit more expensive than Linode but at least you aren't sharing the server with other virtualized users. And besides, if your business isn't worth $200/mo in fixed costs for this important part of your infrastructure, why bother investing your valuable time anyway?

Has anyone had experience to be able to comment on the pros and cons of: Slicehost or Rackspace?
