is there any progams that let you read things or access the web in landscape mode?

There are a couple of third party tools (NYDITOT is probably the most popular). Also, Microsoft just announced Windows Mobile Editio 2003 Second Edition, which will natively support switching to Landscape. You may just want to hold off and see if your device can be updated.

Also there is Thunderhawk. Excellent for web use.

I can't recall for sure, but I believe the 4150 is one of the devices HP has said it will provide an update for. Of course, until it's on the site for download, it's still a rumour to me.

i was waiting the landscape option of the new OS but i read that this causes problems with most of the programs on the shelf.
this didnt suprise me because all the programs are written in the assumptation that the screen is 320x240 resolution.
microsoft will have to give us information about how to handle this!
