I can confirm it works in the conversations application. I shall test others soon, busy trying to find out if it is AT ALL possible to use 3's free msn service on N900. When I'm completely satisfied that I inevitably can't, I shall continue testing the rotations.

It's for debugging purposes, hence why all apps can flip into portrait mode.
Not sure if this would be available in the final release.

Portrait mode makes such a great change to usability (just tested in leaked 1.2)! A real pity the onscreen keyboard does not work in portrait mode.. crossing fingers for it to work eventually...

nosa101 - i'm sorry for missing it. =(

yeah but i'd hope instead of pressing the shortcut's CTRL + SHIFT + R,we'd just rotate it by using the built-in accelerometer..but yeah,as Kyron said, it's quite a big step in 6months of N900 existance..

perhaps we could see a bright future in N900 although MEEGO devices hav been announced.. =)

That would be a damn shame, purely because I have followed the development of the app closely and know there has been soooooo much work put into it.
