I also have ION and am looking. There is a company call Everest:
http://www.everestgt.com/index.html.  Everest is not available in Overland
Park :( where I'm located but they are available in Lenexa and other parts
of Jo Co.  Everest provides voice/data (up to 3Mb) and cable.  I have a
friend that's pretty happy with thier service.

As a soon-to-be former Sprint ION customer, I, too, am in the market for
some sort of residential high-speed 'net access.
The obvious choices are SWB DSL and Road Runner.  I seem to hear fewer
complaints from RR customers than SWB, so that's what I'm leaning towards.

Any other options I should check out, that are available to me in northeast
Johnson Co (KS)?

I favor reliability over speed (I'd much prefer 1 Mbps/128kbps rock-solid
over a flaky 8 Mbps/800 kbps connection).
Static IP address is a plus.  SWB and RR are both around $50/month, and I
don't want to go much above that.

I'm going to miss my 4 Mbps/700 kbps (and very reliable) ION connection
(with TWO static IP addresses). :^(
