Experience with ULTRA cheap web hosting?

I'm not so sure that I can (or want to) host my website and email when I get 
my new form of broadband (don't know what, yet).  So I've been doing some 
searches for really really cheap web and mail hosting that still has all 
the features I need.

I found quite a few that offer my essentials:
1. Web-based admin
2. Unlimited email aliases
3. Unlimited email accounts
4. Unlimited sub-domains
5. Linux/Unix based

The price range I looked for ranged from $1/month to $5/month.  The price, 
obviously, is *very* attractive.  Most of the plans had yearly fees that 
were the same and the most popular web hosting companies monthly fees.

There are obviously trade-offs, though.  I'm wondering if anybody here has 
had experiences good or bad with any of the rock-bottom hosting services?
