I'm trying to use the sensors API for the accelerometers on a test phone (Nexus S). With the phone sitting on the bench doing nothing, I get some very strange readings (image attached). Has anyone else seen this sort of behavior?[Glitches in accel reading](http://i.stack.imgur.com/ALqSA.png)? Any idea how to deal with it?
