Hello everyone! I'm the proud new owner of a ThinkPad X40, and was just wondering if there is a game or some other interesting utility that uses the ThinkPad's ability to tell what angle the computer is at for some control or other. Maybe using it as a mouse, so that when you tip the laptop the cursor moves accros the screen. Has anyone found or made something like that?
Very useful forums by the way, I'm glad I found them!

It was done on the mac, since information on how it works was public. As for the Thinkpad, someone at IBM did it, but hasn't released any code yet... or that's what I read a while ago.
