1. A method comprising: determining, by a motion-sensing device of a handheld electronic device, orientation changes of the handheld electronic device over time; correlating, by said handheld electronic device, the orientation changes with force data measured by an accelerometer to generate measurements of orientation with respect to a horizontal plane and inertial acceleration in three dimensions; and based at least in part on the measurements of orientation, controlling, by said handheld electronic device, display of an object on a display panel of the handheld electronic device as a function of motion of said handheld electronic device, said function interpreting motion along a first axis as a first function that affects the display of the object on said display panel, and said function interpreting motion about a second axis distinct from the first axis as a second function that affects the display of the object on said display panel, wherein the first function is different from the second function.
