Yup, Internet Nebraska (http://www.inebraska.com).  Granted, I'm a tad biased because I used to work there, and am good friends with a bunch of guys that work there, but in all honesty it's a good company.  They offer ISP service for Qwest DSL's, and also offer very affordable colo.

Qwest only offers reverse DNS on "business" level DSL's, MSN doesn't offer it at all, and I'm not sure what other providers are a choice up there.  All Qwest DSL's in Nebraska (afaik) are still PPPoA, so that's a big bonus. 

Good luck!
