Has anyone had any experience with something called the Alignmate Pro? It's an aid to help alignment of telescopes:

I have no experience with this item but it seems like a gadget for gadgets sake. I don't fond it terribly hard to plonk the scope down and level it with a bubble level and south isn't to hard to find with a polar scope. Absolute accuracy is very rarely needed and I find it hard to believe this item would be more accurate than a level and the polar scope.
