[Tinyos-help] Unit of the Voltage sensor

[Joe Polastre]

You must be using TinyOS 2.x (which it always helps if you include
which version of the operating system that you're using), and this
version (for some odd reason) doesn't report the Voltage in
millivolts.  Both TinyOS 1.x and Boomerang report in millivolts, thus
the confusion.
