The apps that really uses the landscape mode to add extra navigation/browse possibilities works really great in landscape mode, for example the IMDb, Wikipanion and Mail apps. When reading longer texts (books, pdf's and similar) and when I'm browsing the web I'm mostly using portrait mode. I suspect the usage is divided approximately 50/50 in my case.
When I think about a Squeezebox controller app, I think landscape mode would be most useful. Squeezebox is more about navigation than reading long texts. So I think you should focus on making the landscape mode great and then just make it work in portrait mode for users that want to use that. Possibly a reason for portrait mode might be that most docking stations requires it to be in portrait mode. However, personally, I just have it on a stand in landscape mode with a loose cable connected to it. This makes it a lot better Flickr photo frame when not used. -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.isaksson.info) (Install my plugins through Extension Downloader) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library, Title Switcher and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.isaksson.info/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=74581 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
