I know it's "somewhat" a problem with all of them... but what I'm talking about is when games drop to half the framerate...

So, let me rephrase - is the e805 'normal' or not.

[quote="sponge"]
deceiver: No, you need a 3rd party app for landscape in 95% of the cases.
quote]

the reason why I said I was 99% sure is that after looking into registry tweaks for pocket pc's I found that some previous toshiba's and even some hp pocket pc's have a setting that is hidden within the registry that allows landscape mode, so I would assume one with the right knowledge of commands of dword values and data value could add the same capability to other pocket pc's such as a620. And the landscape programs have to alter something somewhere to allow landscape and knowing that the registry can effect display mode makes me wonder exactly what is it doing? Also i enabled the contrast feature(icon for a better word) in a620 unfortunetly the slider is frozen so it is a dead feature.

Those hacks are possible since the hardware directly supports rotations. It's not an issue of finding the correct registry value on any device, it's an issue of whether the hardware supports it.

Note that they don't recalibrate the screen like the apps do, so you're still better off with a 3rd party program.
