Thank you Herbert. I tried your file, but unfortunately, the table rotates
off the page now.. What am I doing wrong?
Also, I'm not sure I explained well the final layout I want to get.
For those of you not using a proportional font, here some ascii art (just
imagine the letters rotated by 90deg to the left)

... and all of this floating, ideally.
Basically, I'd like to have two \sidewaystable 's on one page. But Latex
won't let me put a sidewaystable into a minipage...
Thanks for your help!
