Over at NokNok, Coops has posted a nifty list of five applications he’d love to see make use of the N95’s built-in accelerometer.
The list includes the rather sensible spirit-level, very useful ’shake to snooze’ alarm clock and frankly bizarre (but wonderful) idea that you could shake your phone to see how full it is. Want to know how much battery you have left? Give the device a rattle and your power is represented by say, water, with the corresponding sound to match.
Got any ideas of your own? Head over and leave your comments.

Just installed “CarMeter” and realised that something similar could be used as an alarm should you phone be moved (stolen/borrowed).
