Resolution of angles - accuracy?

I've taken a look at the sensors example, "sensor dump" & a few other bits of software & can't tell if it's worth me starting on a project... I'm going to need to detect changes in angle of the order of 0.01 degrees.

The best resolution I've seen for the orientation sensors seems to be 0.1 degrees.

The accelerometer seems to read to 4 decimal places, but I've not been able to tell if that is actually the resolution of the detection. (I'd need 2 orthagonal accelerations to get a change in angle).

Does anyone know the limit of sensitivity of the sensors (lowest common denominator or highest resolution currently on the market would do)?
