Oh yes, there is, it is in the backports PPA since quite some time.
See also http://kubuntu.org for more information.

I use KDE 4.3 since it's first beta release in May this year through
this repository, and it really is a tremendous improvement over KDE
4.2, which was to be expected :)

I strongly recommend to all of the subscribers here to have an eye on
the Kubuntu website (see link above), as it has very valuable
information also in the wiki: http://wiki.kubuntu.org (the link is at
the top right of the website). It is quite easy to get the information
by subscribing to their RSS feed for the news page:
http://www.kubuntu.org/news/feed.

To install KDE 4.3 from the backports PPA, add the following source to
your sources.list:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu jaunty main

and of course add the gpg key to your keyring, which is done with the
following two lines (each on one single line):

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 2836CB0A8AC93F7A

gpg --export --armor 2836CB0A8AC93F7A | sudo apt-key add -

(don't forget the hyphen at the end of this line.

As of today, the additional staging source is not necessary anymore,
the website will be updated soon :)
