Russ, look at the Manfrotto car mounts. Around $200 - $300.

Stu @ Quality Camera Sales for new, or look on ebay for the odd 2nd hand one that might come up.

I've got the Manfrotto 241V. some people have them and love them, mine has been tempermental since day one and doesn't always suction properly. when you have 3k of camera hanging off it, you want to be damn sure its not coming off. that said I have managed to use it succesfully a number of times



that was used with a canon 40D and 10-22mm wide angle lens to get this shot

you will hardly use it, its uses are very limited unless your doing the above shots. also works well with a video camera. i have 4 more smaller ones which are good for a light weight video camear but a DSLR will pull it off the wall
