[TriEmbed] FXOS8700CQ EOL, last orders December of this year

Wait, the buffered magnitude values can be compared with thresholds (of 
course, I'm a silly goose) but the repeat counter mechanism isn't there. 
This looks like a candidate. The availability doesn't look great, but 
hopefully it isn't on an EOL list!

Thanks, Chip.
