There's a new low-cost accelerometer PCB you can get on ebay, I think it was bout $7. The output is digital I2C using 2 wires, and the 3-axis resolutions were quite low, (only 5bits for each axis if I remember right) so it's simple to use. The chips was specifically designed for phones and cameras to read an orientation.
Pololu and Sparkfun have a more complex I2C accelerometer product that has 12bits for each axis. That will give finer angle sensing but will be a bit more work to interface.
