As for the rotation, there are three possibilities:
1. Gtk+ rotation, it's quite suboptimal :) My friend is making some text reader, and he found that gtk+ primitive behaves quite differently on different platforms (he was checking a desktop computer, a notebook, and his zaurus with pdaxrom). 2. Quite standard extension -- Xrandr as it was mentioned in the other post, but this is not available (as far as I understood due to the memory constraints). 3. Not so standard extension. And this seems to become available eventually. Most likely not in the first version of the Nokia Internet Table software 2005 edition (or whatever it's called). Regards, -- Misha
