G-Sensor

I've been messing with the G-sensor in the Touch Pro, and would like to actually write a useful application to utilize it. Only problem is, I can't think of any good ideas. It was suggested to me to write an app that lets you physically move the phone to move, like a view finder to a large image (similar to street view on the G1), however this isn't too feasible given the way our G-sensor is implemented, it seems like only tilting is accurately detected, not general movements.

Anyone have any good ideas?

I could do something like that, just have to come up with some good flame animations....

An ignore feature would be pretty hot, such as shaking/tilting the phone to ignore calls.

Isn't the Touch Pro supposed to ignore calls when you face the phone down on the table during an incomming call? That is if the phone is facing up in the when the call comes in.
