Well I'm new here but to make it short from my limited experience here...
Tilt allows for screen rotation like the BB Storm and the Apple I---
As for the IR it allows for universal remote functionality with the proper sw and likely data transfer though the data transfer is old school...
He mentions something about new screen functionality, not sure what that may be though.

Right, but what games and/or apps can currently use it, or will at some point? The idea here is, of what benefit will it be to me?

If you make it, I'll try to make Xournal aware of its existance and rotate the note accordingly

the rx-51 has a tilt sensor so its likely that fremantle itself will have support.
it would be better to expect rotation to occur at the os level itself.
having said that, I think other gestures would work well:
etchasketch type clearing when you shake the screen would be cool
It would be even better to do that per app, and if you shake it too much bits of UI start falling to the bottom!

@craves1: Can you share the name of the chip that you're planning to use? I am no coder (haven't touched anything of that sort in a long time), but I am interested in playing around with this.

Screen tilting is one purpose, maybe the important primary one. But there are many! It allows some games to be controlled this way. For example Neverball. I think Pandora would also gain accelerometer. Its also very useful in GPS device, and in general would open some more options for Carman. Here are many more!

As soon as I'll get my Dell mini 9 I'll install Fremantle and start porting Xournal to it and I am pretty sure I'll take a look at this option along with getting advantage of some Clutter effect (buttons that hover over the note and fade away when start using the stylus again and stuff like that).
This will work the same way on Fremantle as it'll work on this mod (if it'll come out). It's just a few mode lines of code to support this particular device in the app instead of relying on the OS.
