That would get aggravating. Do the icons realign themselves or "fold back" and and lay out differently, then? I think I kinda like the iPhone approach, where the home screen remains vertically oriented at all times, and you only turn the thing sideways when you're in an app that supports or requires it. |
Yes. And what kinda sucks about that is that
the Springboard icons change their arrangement. (iOS 4 has a similar flaw in Folders: the mini-icons show a 3x3 grid, but an actually open folder is 4x3 — so not only does it not necessarily show all icons; as soon as you have more than three in one folder, it arranges them differently!)
