I would recommend renting them from a place like VER (Video Equipment Rentals), they are nationwide. I haven't used any robos personally, but a few TV shows I've worked on use Sony BRC-H700's with HD-SDI cards. They aren't cheap though. If you watch a bunch of the Gordon Ramsey reality shows like Kitchen Nightmares you'll find these exact cams mounted everywhere. You'll also need to rent a controller (Sony RM-BR300 is what I've seen used) and the control cabling. The RM-BR300 can control up to 7 cameras daisy chained.
