Screen rotation under WM2003?

New Axim X50v owner, still learning, but I have a (probably basic) question.

Screen rotation (PIE, NetFront, Word): is it possible natively through the OS or is a third-party app required? If third party, which is best/lightest load/least expensive?

It is built in to the OS.

Start - Settings - System - Screen - select left or right handed depending on the way you want the screen to move.

You can also map this to one of the hardware buttons. I'll let you find that though (hint: check in Start - Settings - Systems for a likely icon :))

Cheers

If you are left-handed,.. use HandyMenu from DinarSoft. it will rotate right or left.

Psst,.. HandyMenu is not just for screen rotation :)
