Okay so i was watching diggnation and one of the guys in the back had this cool looking stable set up for his DSLR. Kinda like a merlin steady cam but it looks like the handle moves around and it looks rather interesing.

here is a screen grab

Yep - definitely looks like a Glidecam. For a DSLR though, you wouldn't need the 4000 version. The HD-2000 or the 2000 Pro would work just fine. If you go too big (or too small - like the 1000), its harder to balance

Whats the big difference between the HD-2000 and the 2000 pro. I checked the website a few times and cant see any difference for there to be a $200 price difference.

Check out the bottom plate. The HD series has more options to move and place the counterweights.
