Is there another name for the magic arms that people use to hold up the TFT monitors with their DV cameras?

Ok, does anyone know a place to buy this monitor holding magic arms? Are there some generic ones not made by the big names (Manfrotto)?

Noga arm, Israeli arm. 16x9 Inc and AbelCineTech would have some other items like this besides the Bogen units.

Interesting thanks. I was trying to find the Noga arm on Ebay and it came up with Chevy parts! lol.
I wanted the generic name (maybe magic arm is the generic name) so I could do an ebay search - I don;t think building my own is a great idea with this.
