I use Visor, and I think it’s fantastic.

For those using this, note that in the ~/library/preferences/com.apple.terminal.plist file there is a “VisorTerminal” subsection where you can set terminal window preferences that are different than your normal terminal window prefs.

The ArsTechnica forum thread is really worth looking at too. Until I read it, I didn’t know you could disable the scrollbar on the scrollback feature while still having the history be there. Also, if you run a persistent Terminal instance on login to use with Visor, it is nice to disable the “initial terminal window” that pops up on launch. Great great tips doled out by the developers themselves.
