I use a Linode 540 out of Fremont CA. Latency to Adelaide is pretty decent, overall their service is just great, couldn’t be happier.
I recently grabbed an OpenVZ based VPS in LA with another company, latency is good back to AU but the VPS just feels slow :( Also the company manages everything using HyperVM which sucks for a few reasons, ie. your hostname and DNS servers are reset at each reboot of your VPS.
For whatever reason, so far I’ve enjoyed XEN based systems better.
