Rails - Mar 2008 - what is a good virtual hosting service for rails that's inexpensive but scales up?

What is a good virtual hosting service for rails that starts off
inexpensive but can be scaled up?

I like the slicehost model, but on the slicehost signup they say we
will email you your password, change it right away.  This is just
security incompetence: they could have me type a password into the
https: web form where I type my credit card number.

Perhaps it''s not the best security practice, but I''ve been
happy with
Slice Host so far.  Their articles (articles.slicehost.com) are a
tremendous resource.

Use slicehost. They are great. I upgraded one of my slices the other
day. It took less than 20 minutes to complete, and I had no noticable
downtime.
