Scott,
Color for me on this one.
Jeff,
Monopod or Tripod (folded legs) ... I'll use either.
I'd invest in good ballhead for your psuedomono before I'd invest in a really good monopod (an average mono still works fine). A nice ball head with a large enough ball to give surface area tension is valuable for shooting with heavy glass and still be able to adjust your shooting angle at will. And of course, you can put it on your monopod or psuedomonopod too.
A good stick (monopod) is nice to drop the weight and somewhat unwieldliness of the tripod. The large ball not only makes for more surface tension, but also more refined control. For the ultimate in stability, you can use BOTH a tripod and monopod @ one on the lens, one on the camera. That of course, isn't an ideal mobility setup. but it can help with long glass when you need slower shutter speeds.
