screen rotation

Any simple plug in that allows a one-touch screen rotation? Its funny how these basic options are standard in Palm OS but not in PCC.

Thanks again.

You can make a button rotate the screen
I assign my Home button to do it.

Start | Settings | Buttons
Assign a button to be < Rotate >

Exactly... I have my record button programmed to do this since I rarely take voice notes. I hit it accidentally every once in a while, but it's very, very rare.

If you're using WisBar Advance, you can assign a custom button to the Rotate Screen option. Then, you'll have the rotate option at the top of your screen.

Here's a pretty trivial question.

I'm looking for a way to have the screen automatically rotate to a portrait orientation when the device is cradled and automatically go back to landscape when I take it off the cradle.

Anyone know of a utility that does this?
