Here's another "sunday app" (strictly aimed at developers/curious people).
I think lot's of people out there are wondering what you can and what you cannot detect with the accels.. to help this kind of questioning I wrote this small app... "accDisplay".

At the main window you can watch in real time the data coming from the accels. and some graphical representation of three vectors (yellow) and their sum (blue).

Using the buttons on the bottom you can record a stream of data, saving it in a xml file and also playback those files. When in playback mode you can change the playback velocity so that it's easier to evaluate some "movement".

There's even an option for Exponential Smoothing of the data being displayed.
