Re: Is there a way to prevent firefox rotating to portrait mode?

The screen lock preference should work in Firefox 1.1 and later. If it isn't, there must be a bug... I can't find any known bugs or other useful information, sorry.

Re: Is there a way to prevent firefox rotating to portrait mode?

You can press control-shift-o to lock the screen orientation in Firefox for Maemo. Firefox will store this setting in its preferences. (You can also see it in about:config as "toolkit.screen.lock".)

Re: Firefox 1.1 is out

That's correct, and hopefully Firefox 2.0 for Maemo/MeeGo will be using the same "faststart" pre-loading once https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=572329 is ironed out.
