Hi!

I am also trying to get some sort of digital compass for my N900, and as far as I checked the price and shipping costs for all the parts necessary for simple IC2 -> Bluetooth digital compass, for me it is cheaper, faster and easier to just buy used Android phone (G1/Dream or Tattoo), attach it to the back of N900 with two elastic bands, and create a simple App that transmits compass coordinates from Android phone via Bluetooth/WiFi. I know it sounds completely stupid, but it solves all the battery/circuitry/soldering/etc problems for the same price or cheaper, AND I get an additional phone. Mind if I include this as one of the options in the Digital Compass wiki section?
