The device signals when it is dropped

When the accelerometer detects that the device is in freefall, it generates the sound of a bloodcurling scream.

And maybe says "ouch" if there is a subsequent large impact. Possibly also keeps murmuring "I'm over here!" if it detects that no one is picking it up. (And "Thanks" when it does get picked up.)

Utility

This will help me know when my phone has fallen out of my pocket/clip.

Problems

Continual use of accelerometer hardware. Could be embarrassing.
