I tried a seat post suspension once but didn't like it. It changes your distance to the crank slightly during up/down movement and felt awkward to me.
But then again I don't enjoy front or rear suspension for road bikes for the same reason: that the steering geometry changes with the compression of suspension and alters your turning while in the turn.
