2010 Accelerometer Documentation?

Does anyone have any information on the accelerometer that we were provided in the KoP this year?

The WPILib user's guide tells us that it's I2C based, but that's all the information I can find. The kit checklist just shows a picture, and there's no documentation on the FIRST site as there is for the gyro and encoder, not even a part number. I haven't had a chance to actually look at the board to search for anything that could help.

So, for now, we have no idea how to even hook it up, not even going on to actually reading it and using the data (hopefully WPI's "shortly after kickoff" will be soon), unless I've missed something. Is everyone else in the same situation?
