Button to switch between portrait and landscape

Does anybody know of a utility that will allow a quick switch between portrait and landscape modes on an Axim X51v? I'd like to assign that function to a button (or second best to an icon on the today screen) so I can do it more quickly than going to start-settings-system tab and then selecting an orientation.

Thanks

I use WisBar Advance2, and I've set it so that holding the Menu button will toggle between portrait and landscape.

Thanks

Thanks,
I had looked several times at the list of items I could assign to buttons and managed to miss this. It is exactly what I was looking for.

I just use my MAIL button (just left of Today button) for this by programming it in settings then I set my CONTACTS hot button to ALt-TAB.
