Jose,
Please review the manual, the sensitivity change requires you to move some
resistors on the board.  The firmware doesn't change.

At the time of design three axis gyroscopes were not available.  Also
Shimmer currently uses analog output gyros, and I don't believe three-axis
analog output parts are common.

While analog parts are more power hungry and lack variable embedded
LPF/interrupt generation, they offer a nice hardware-level abstraction--
meaning that all analog transducers behave in a similar fashion and silicon
from different vendors can be used without firmware changes.
