I'd say at this point, of all the choices, your best one is probably MtGox. Not only have they been through security test hell, and came out on the other side with better security in place, but they've also shown that they, as a company, are willing to take a personal loss to make their users whole again.
Is there a reason not to use Tradehill for something like this? Don't they now have fixed addresses available?
I do not recommend putting substantial amounts of bitcoin anywhere but on your own properly secured computer. Once you are talking about an amount of money that would really hurt you to loose, you need to think about offline only storage and multiple secured backups.
Hint: a Windows computer is not secure unless it is OFF. (not just offline, I mean turned off, no power)

I've had nothing but great experiences with Instawallet.org. It's very fast and convenient, BUT you must be sure to bookmark or copy your special URL, because that is your password. I'm amazed how quickly transactions show up there after sending coins to the address.
Except their way is 100% unsafe, don't even know why in hell they use https if the request url is the password... use it for spare change, but keep in mind it's way too unsafe.

Now that MyBitcoin.com has been shown to be a thief, what is the best and most trustworthy ewallet?
No reviews, but a list of known ewallets:

"free for all" (as mybitcoin was) is suspicious
Can't vouch for them, but at least bit-bank charges a withdraw fee. - this is actually a good thing towards legibility, "free for all" (as mybitcoin was) is suspicious unless you believe there's such thing as a free lunch.
Now that MyBitcoin.com has been shown to be a thief, what is the best and most trustworthy ewallet? Anyone have reviews on bit-bank.org?
thanks
