Much appreciated David!

So the 9150 code can be used also for the 6050? I am not familiar with that 
sensor, but it sounds like it is the previous version of the 6150?

The ADXL335 should be I2C compliant; at least that's what I was told, when 
I purchased it. The example that you posted is in the internal scripting 
language for cloud9, correct? I am not familiar with that...I know only C 
and C++, so I am not sure how can I use that to drive a C++ program on the 
BBB.

Thanks for the info, I have something to start to study at least :)
