Hey,
I just finished of a quick library of functions for controlling some
of the hardware features on Apple computers when running under Mac OS
X. So far, I have been able to control the screen brightness;
control the keyboard backlight brightness and fade time; get data
from the "sudden motion sensor" or built-in accelerometer; and get
data from the built-in light sensors.
It's included in the nightly builds as the 'apple' library, check
5.reference -> apple in the Help Browser for help patches.
Also, this should be pretty easy to do for other computers. For
example, the Thinkpad features are pretty well documented under
Windows and GNU/Linux:

Or for Apple hardware, there is pbbuttonsd: http://pbbuttons.berlios.de/

This 'apple' lib is indeed Mac OS X only. I think the way to do it
GNU/Linux is to make a fully-featured dbus object. That would provide
this functionality and more in a GNU/Linux way. I suppose this apple
lib could be ported to GNU/Linux, and perhaps even to Windows for
people who run on Apple hardware.
I don't have a Thinkpad, so I haven't tried the Thinkpad code below.
