well, you could theoretically get the update 23 hours and 59 minutes earlier that way. in practice there is no difference. hour or two max if you visit tmo daily.
not really helpful with thr threads like this emerging everday.
I think the plan is to include a bit of kinetics so that it "settles" to an up-down position with some swing, to really give the impression that gravity is orienting the onscreen display - which it is in a sense.
There will also be a Schrödinger mode, where the sensors will detect when the phone is placed screen down the screen image flips left-right to be still readable from above.
Yeah, there is a brainstorm for this, marked as 'being implemented'. With QT + DSP it is quite straightforward, as any rotation is essentially 'free' from a computation perspective.
So the way it will work is use the accelerometer to work out which way is "down" and then orientate the displayed applicaitions so that they are always up-down no matter what rotation you have the phone.
So rotate 45 degrees and you'll get your diagonal mode.
This will look quite amusing as the onscreen display will always try and remain vertical as you spin your phone around.

You should be able to shake the phone to rearrange the controls, like pebbles in a jar.
Sorry to let you down. There won't be a PR 1.3....
MeeGo will join forces with Apple and Google and they will come up with iMeeGoid!
Everything will become universal, opensource and free (except for AppStore content).

I had feared this, dont you see it people??? DONT YOU SEE IT??? ITS F**CKIN SKYNET!!! we're gonna be enslaved by our n900's! kept in a matrix-like environment, which due to open GL issues will be really glitchy and give us all migraines!
