Sure there are:

* AgileZen: http://agilezen.com
* LeanKit Kanban: http://leankitkanban.com
* Flow: http://flow.io

And be big tools like VersionOne and Rally have Kanban boards too, AFAIK.

I noticed that AgileZen has just been acquired by Rally, so will be interesting to see if it continues to exist in its own right or get rolled into Rally.
That's right. The plan seems to keep it in its own right for now. Let's see...
AgileZen will remain a separate offering for the foreseeable future.
LeanKit Kanban offers the most flexible board editor available - allowing nested vertical lanes and horizontal swimlanes. If you can draw it on a whiteboard, you can model it in LeanKit. And editing is all done in the board so it takes no time at all.

Customizable card colors, configurable icons for class of service, and gravatars for assigned team member(s) make critical work items jump out. Lanes turn red when WIP limits are exceeded.

In June we'll add board cloning and an iPad app!

** Shameless plug alert ** ;-)

There will be a new one soon go to www.upstarthq.com and watch that space. Although Kanban is only part of the product, it's actually going to be product development platform for bootstrapping startups. But the Kanban board and backlog features will likely be free.

I've tried SmartQ, but I think AgileZen is better. I've been using it for a few weeks now and it's really help me see everything I need to do.
corrected link: http://getsmartq.com
smartQ has features AgileZen does have not: customized ticket fields, separate area for communication on each ticket and flexible user rights (linked to the columns).
Needless to say the custom fields is a killer feature.

KanbanTool - surprisingly good tool for distributed teams, because of  real-time updates.  Probably the most intuitive tool I've tried so far.
