I posted an update to this story a few days ago. I haven't seen a single 500 error (nor any other for that matter) since I moved my sites to Pair. Uptime has been 100% for months, and tech support is great. Highly recommended. In fact, a google search for "pair networks horror story" doesn't turn up a single relevant result :). Hi Marek.

They've said in the WordPress Podcast that if your host is giving you problems with WP, call them and they'll get HostingZoom's servers properly optimized. 99% of the time, the problem isn't WP, but the server's configuration. ;-) Try contacting the Automattic team.

I have a $5/month plan which gives something like 100GB of storage and 1TB of transfers per month, plus 24 hour toll free support. I've got a website and 2 WordPress install running live and have never seen a 500 error for any reason but my own sloppy coding. The only setback is that I don't get shell access with my $5 account so I have to unzip WordPress locally and upload zillions of tiny files via FTP so updates take 20 or 30 minutes. For $10/month you get shell access plus way more storage, domain names, mySQL databases, and other good stuff. You can also choose between a Linux or Windows server.
