Haven't used it, but it looks more like it puts a curve into the overall shape of the stylet rather than bending just the tip.

That would not be particularly helpful.

haven't tried this yet, seems like it would work okay with a glidescope. cant really see my department spending any extra money over a normal one though

I have played with this device but I don't find it useful. You get nearly the same effect as when you pull back your stylet and the ETT takes on its natural cure.
