I am also looking for US based DNN hosting at the moment.  From what I hear, GoDaddy would not be the best option.  They may be competitive, but they aren't DNN specialists.  So far, I am considering: 

DiscountASP.net

I have also seen mentioned here:

http://www.powerdnn.com/

Sure you could do it yourself, but unless you are particularly interested in and have time for the technology, you are probably better off finding a DNN specialist that can handle the hosting for you.

I personally use 3Essentials and have had very good luck with them, the price is right and the service is better than average. 

I have heard very good things about www.powerdnn.com however they were just too pricey for what I have to host... (Too many domains...and a mix of DNN/non DNN sites) 

On my blog site I have a tutorial on how to migrate a DNN site to 3Essentials, it is even linked to by the 3Essentials support team via their Knowledge base.

As for hosting it yourself, you would have to have the hardware and a proper internet connection (with sufficient upload abilities) to host it on your own.  I would say that if you are getting along on GoDaddy now that the costs for that will FAR exceed your budget.
