What is the best web host to (cheaply) serve JSP/MySQL?

I have a basic account with Dreamhost, and they've been great so far but they don't offer JSP support except on dedicated servers. I'm rather partial to PHP anyway, but since I've enrolled in a Java web development class, the professor would like me to use Java (go figure).

I've been doing the Tomcat/Jakarta thing on my home computer so that engine would be the best, but I'm not sure how different the other engines are and would be willing to migrate if the difference in implementation isn't drastic.

The site will serve as a sandbox for my group members and I to develop our projects, so there will be virtually no bandwidth and disk space issues. HTTP servers are a violation of our cable company's TOS. My Google results are saturated with crap and I'm wondering if any of your hosts offer a particularly good deal.

TIA

I've been using eapps for over a year now. I am using the 'Standard Plus' plan, which is basically a 'virtual server', which means you can login to a shell, stop and start all services you want when you want it. It's running Apache / Jakarta.

rimuhosting will run you $19.95 a month for a virtual private server w/ JSP and all that stuff.
