Hey,

just received my microbit and while typing along (really easy espruino install, btw) I found that repetitively calling compass() creates nonsense result and soon gets stuck at
```
{ "x": 0, "y": 0, "z": 2 }
```
like so:
```
>compass()
={ "x": 29688, "y": -1537, "z": 32514 }
>compass()
={ "x": -4214, "y": 24832, "z": 24834 }
>compass()
={ "x": 24878, "y": -253, "z": 2 }
```
Saw that too? Not sure if its some device data underflow or a missing reset, as I haven't looked at any internals so far.

Cheers
Stev
