Has anyone tried using the accelerometer (e.g. on an Edge 530) for user input? Is it accurate enough? I'm thinking of stuff like "tap the unit from the left/right to switch views" etc?

i used the compass in my app Sail Racer, on the first screen, but not the accelerometer..... Accuracy is a matter of you deciding how much "G" a tap is.... if you download the sample accelerometer sample to your watch, it displays the acceleometer readings realtime, so you can tap and see what they change by to help decide what to use as a trigger ;)
