Now I'm thinking about it........it's not a problem solving device. It only takes care of a symptom. If your guitar goes out of tune alot, the problem lies in strings, bridge, vibrato, nut or tuners. If you have a guitar that stays in tune well, you won't need an auto tuner. If it doesn't, you can upgrade the guitar with all the thing mentioned above for a fraction of the price of that auto tuning gizmo.

One more thing. How long will the batteries last?

And I agree that mathematical tuning isn't always right.

The self tuning one I found interesting was the one that coped with alternate tunings at the touch of a button, which could hold dozens of different tunings.

As for motorised standard tuning, I'm not quite that lazy.

jimmy page had (has? i dunno) a les paul with a computer in the back, so he could press a button and the guitar would re-tune to a programmed tuning. so he could go from standard to open G or something just by a flick of a switch. could even control the speed, so it changed gradually or BANG! different tuning.
