That thing looks terrible. XD

If you've looked around at some of the prosthetic tails fursuit makers have worked on over the years, there are several that look a lot better than that, and are probably a lot cheaper, too. (Especially without the huge box at the base of it sitting on your hips.) I don't think the movement in that thing looks very natural either.

It reminds me of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKyq3N1cVpg

Anyway, despite its boxy appearance I think its a small step towards making a robotic tail that looks real.

I think the movement is cool.
But it looks bad. xD

I'd like to see this gadget in about 3 years, how it has developed.

Might be better after development, expensive too, I would imagine.
