I've played with the merlin style one like that. It works very well, its overpriced though, and you can make one fairly easy. Hardest thing is finding a good gimbal to make one, but with some research its fairly easy to find what you need.

Just saw this video http://vimeo.com/1806106 Lots of things you can find on Vimeo about how to make your own. Jay-Rock Ill take some pics of my setup when I get a chance.
