Name    : MMA8453_n0m1 Library                         
Author  : Noah Shibley, Michael Grant, NoMi Design Ltd. http://n0m1.com                       
Date    : Feb 10th 2012                                    
Version : 0.1                                              
Notes   : Arduino Library for use with the Freescale MMA8453Q via i2c. 
          Some of the lib source from Kerry D. Wong
	  http://www.kerrywong.com/2012/01/09/interfacing-mma8453q-with-arduino/
	  This library has been tested with the Freescale MMA8453Q Accelerometer
	  chip, however the Freescale MMA8451, and MMA8452 probably also work.
	  Refer to the examples for how to use this library.  
			
Dependencies:	
	 I2C library:
