Portrait or Landscape?

spicychicken · 09-20-04, 06:37 PM

Don't know if there has been a poll like this yet, but it has at least not been recently.

Personally I like landscape, but some programs won't work and it's a little bit of a pain to switch all the time.

would be nice if there was a shortcut key like there is for the screen brightness....

Use portrait 98% of the time. Landscape mode just doesn't look as good with the screen making my eyes feel wierd and having to hold it a certain way so the image doesn't ghost.

I don't know if I've got any credability...yet...but I'm finding I use portrait, unless I'm looking at an Excel spreadsheet...

I mostly use landscape. Only time i dont is when a gmae or app doesnt work in landscape.

while i have only had mine for a short time, i find myself using portrait unless reading an ebook

Landscape unless there's a program that needs a Portrait view to run. Either way its really nice to have the option.

Remap one of your hardware buttons in Settings

I use a button to switch and use landscape for Excel and reading from any program.

Wow, the only reason i didnt use landscape is cuz i was too lazy to go through the settings while i would be doing other stuff on the axim, and i just remapped one of my buttons and presto. why didnt i think of that before...thanks guys.
