Accelerometer and or gps based automotive data logging/dynometer/dynoliscious?

Anyone know of anything that does this? These programs use the output of the accelerometer to calculate things like 0-60, quarter mile times, you can input weight and drive-train loss and it can estimate wheel horsepower/crank hp. The Iphone apps are called dynolicious and the other one is g-tac.  Just wondering if anyone knows of any jre apps for this phone before I spring for one of those apps for the g.f.'s ipod touch.  I think those also use the gps for logging lap times which wouldn't be a bad thing.

I also wondered why I don't see any accel games either.  That is a huge pain, why include a feature and make it a bug with the way ten pictures slide by before I go to profile/landscape.  No accel games, no access to accel data, why even include the sensor.  Makes me want to return crap when I can't use it.

I don't know because I don't make it but it seems like apple and nintendo and basically every new phone barring a limited few has already done the testing.

I wouldn't buy something for an accelerometer and we all know nintendo doesn't make phones, thanks.  Its just if it is built in and it can read an accelerometer, why lock it? (I have the assumption that it is so it can still be called a mid range and doesn't seem to do all the fancy crap other "smartphones" can do?)  If it is reversed, reverse the output, again like I said I don't engineer it but if you think that the problem is "reversal", there would be the solution of programming it to see the inverse.  If it can see things like tilt on either axis such as tilt for photo or the data from when you shake dice, I can be pretty sure it can sense acceleration and someone knows how to access the accurate output that the accelerometer has.  Thanks for the sarcasm.  calm down and try this http://content.honeywell.com/sensing/sensotec/accelerometer_faq.asp?category=All and remember, your on a telephone forum

you don't need to add any more but let me add that we are arguing kinda different things I think.  You say that we are not aloud to use the accelerometer in java apps.  I believe you on that but I also believe that if the accelerometer in the phone exists, someone has a way to view the accurate outputs of the sensor and it would be nice if we had that same access making this a more powerful tool for us.

i see..
maybe I just wanted the further detail and I was inquiring and now I am satisfied.  To sum up your post and explain the detail that I needed, "I can in fact see what the accelerometer outputs and from these outputs it would be possible to calculate the things that I want to know, however, so far it is very difficult or impossible to record these outputs in a way that is useful to us."
