It's true most of the time. I know that with my Nikon D700 at 24mm I can only do 25-30 seconds. With a good wide angle of 12-14 mm however I know I should have no problems reaching the 40-45 seconds without any star trails. I don't have a wide angle so I have never tried it but it works mathematically.
