I found the biggest issue with polar aligning the LX200 with a wedge was not the wedge itself, but the painful alignment process needed for the Autostar. Not intuitive, not straight forward (well that just describes the whole software to a T for me http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/....milies/lol.gif ) and I believe, a real challenge for many inexperienced astronomers to identify sigma octans in a finderscope, let alone an eyepiece. Fortunately there are work arounds available.

If you have properly drift aligned your mount, then the above is irrelevant.
For a Meade scope, you just start a std polar one star align.
When it says centre Sig Oct, you just hit enter,
you dont even bother to look in the EP.
Centre the second star and you are off and running.
Couldnt be easier
