Not something I've looked at but the example one weights 170Kg and has a payload of 5Kg's so it may not be very helpful for star parties.
I'd also be very amazed if you could get anything better than a toy for a couple of hundred dollars retail. 170Kg of steel would probably cost more than that let alone adding servo's, encoders, controllers etc.
I'd love to have a play with one and if anyone knows where to get them cheap I really want to know but as a telescope mount for an amature budget it seems unlikely.
