"B" Bender. Very cool!

Just when you think you've seen it all!!
While we were practicing with our gospel group yesterday, one of our pickers brought out something I had never seen before, but man, it sure was cool, and I'd love to have one. But they apparently are quite rare. I was wondering if any body here has heard of it. It's called a "B bender". It's a device that's installed in the guitar, that works along with the shoulder strap. When you give the guitar a slight downward tug, the attachment point on the strap activates the bender, and whatever chord or note you are playing "bends" or whines like a steel guitar. Coolest thing I've ever seen! It's pretty simple in concept, but difficult to describe.
Anybody here ever heard or seen one?
