I found it pretty accurate with a couple of minor quibbles. First, they say that you will "inevitably" use it with 2 hands. I use mine naked, and it is very comfortable in one hand. I use it that way frequently. Also, while I agree that the accelerometer sometimes changes the orientation when it shouldn't (and I keep mine locked as a result), I have never experienced it not changing when you turn the device. According to them, it only works about 60% of the time, but I have never seen that on either my Graphite or my old DX.
