I've got one of the Wal-Mart roll-around tables with adjustable top and a
cabinet in the bottom.  Its not super useful except as a place to set tools
and smaller/lighter parts.  Too unsteady for a work surface.  I've also got a
Harbor Freight roll around cart with an upper and lower shelf.  It's good for
heavier parts, but a too low for a work surface.  The thing I've found the
most useful for a portable work surface is an old ironing board.  High,
stable, reasonably sturdy and doesn't take much space when its not in use.  If
my wife ever decides to iron something I'll probably have to buy her a new one
though.....


Hi thee to your local Salvation Army thrift shop (or your lcoal equivalent.).
They'll have several.
