Landscape?

I just got my X5 over the weekend and have since been adding this and that. Well, after checking out Opera (and loving it), I put it on there. My question is how do I make it so I can view the screen in landscape mode? Or is that possible on an X5? I read somewhere that someone was watching movies that way, but maybe that comes w/ the movie program. Hmmm. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Jen

Wm2003se and above support the landscape feature. There are third party apps that can give older versions ability to go landscape. NYDIOT virtual display is one of them.

Just be aware that many of the system programs, etc may not display right in landscape, b/c the os wasnt made for it.

PocketTV and TCPMP are a couple of freeware media players that will give you that lanscape functionality while watching movies. They won't help your internet experience but it is cool waatching movies in landscape mode.

See if TCMP and other video players can do landscape in WM2003, then a mobile browser should do the same! There needs to be a broswer with built-in landscape support! I wonder if someone here can create a plugin for PIE.
