From what I've seen, any jig gives you the ability to cut reasonably tidy dovetails in exchange for the losing versatility and ability to cut them in any size and shape you wish. I'd urge anyone who plans to use dovetails to learn to hand cut them. You won't get them right the first time, but it won't be long before it's quicker for you to cut them by hand than to set up a jig.
There is plenty of information on how to cut them around. You could do worse than look at Derek Cohen's posts on these forums.
You just have to decide whether you want to cut pins or tails first.
