This is done by design. You can find a few tips about how to program with this in mind here: http://developer.android.com/resources/articles/faster-screen-orientation-change.html I know there are other links that talk about this in the Dev Guide but I couldn't find them quickly for some reason and, as I am at work, can't devote to much time into looking into this right now. If I have time and find them later, I'll be sure to post them as well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- There are only 10 types of people in the world...
