Is there any software (preferably free-ware, of course) that permits me to use Ipaq's programs (e.g. Word and Excel) In landscape orientation, giving me a wider screen to work with?

Prior to WM2003SE, which has it in the OS, JS Landscape from Jimmy Software and NYDITOT provided that function. You have to reset the PPC to change orientations with either of those products.

The new version of Nyditot (4.x) doesn't need a soft reset anymore, although it's far from perfect. The ability to avoid resetting only applies if you switch between a set of pre-defined display profiles. Once you change it to a completely different one, it requires a one-off, and unavoidable soft reset.
