lcd mounting issues at DVinfo.net

Hi,
I'm looking to get a small monitor for on-camera use but... I hate having to keep twisting around to see whats going on on the screen when moving the camera about - for example, if i did a shot panning up from the ground to a high building I would have to go from standing to kneeling during the shot just to be able to see the framing on a camera mounted monitor. I need to find a solution so that the monitor stays level (or at a fixed angle), even if the camera pans up or down, something like a self-levelling stand, that can either mount somehow on the camera or attach to the tripod in some way. Or even some way of attaching the monitor to me! Anyone seen anything like this available anywhere?
