The core77 design directory will also help you find similar companies to Ideo / Frog: http://www.designdirectory.com/ but mostly it is pure ID firms.
Something worth noting is that a lot of these historically 'human-centered' ID firms are really riding the User-Experience horse hard these days (especially Frog). A lot of their UX / UI grew out of their clients needs for a more inclusive approach to industrial design. (Ie: We have an electronics product with an interface, rather than contracting out the UX/UI work to a different design agency, why not just have the same company who does the ID work do the UX/UI?)
To be honest I think the results are mixed. Some of these companies have done extremely good UX + UI work, while others is usually subpar.
