I see some nice things happening in the near future.

Microb portait works good and it switches pretty fast. I can't wait to see the full implementation :D

¡Portrait mode browsing! Weird rendering while scrolling
 
If you scroll the page at a moderate speed while in portrait mode without flinging the page, text flows in a "wavy" fashion up and down the page.

In other words, text on the left refreshes at a rate different from the text on the right side or middle.

This may well happen in landscape mode too, but the screen height is too short for it to be noticed.

Works for me. CTRL + SHFT + O, then close keyboard and rotate the phone.

It continued to work after closing the browser and opening a new one.

I believe it stays on once you turn it on until you turn it off again.

A true Easter Egg must satisfy the following criteria:

1. Undocumented, Hidden, and Non-Obvious
An Easter Egg can't be a legitimate feature of a product, or be an obvious part of a storyline. Easter Eggs will usually stand out either because they totally don't fit with their context (like a pinball game in a word processor), or because they have a deeper hidden personal meaning to the creators, so they threw it in for entertainment.

Browsing in portrait mode is a legitimate functional piece of the browser completely within context of the use of the browser.

Just because they released functionality before they finished iti doesn't make it an easter egg in my book.
point bolded

hopefully in 6 they will also re-format the page to fit in portrait mode. What sense does it make to have to slide the screen left and right to read text on the page? smh!!!
I think the idea isn't to re-format the page but to let the user re-format the device according to the page layout. ;)

The Ovi store is a darn site easier to navigate in portrait mode than landscape...

I enabled the portrait mode with Ctrl+Shift+o. Now i would like to disable it. How?
