I don't know if your pb has the sudden motion sensor, but why don't you just try the level widget? I just gave it a go on my 12" pb and it works, or are you saying you've tried it and it doesn't work?

I found the widget here on the original authors website and you have to use different versions for the new hi-res pbs and the older ones, did you get the right one?

I always like mactracker.ca for detailed info on older mac models...
Whilst it doesn't explicitly mention the sms, If yours was the earlier model (came as a 1,33/1,5 Ghz model) without the scrolling trackpad as standard, it doesn't have this feature.

If yours was the later version (offered in 1,5/1,67GHz flavors) with stock scrolling trackpad, then it also has the sudden motion sensor.
