Default GoLandscape 2.0 for iPaq 5400 Series

http://www.pocketgear.com/software_...associateid=204

A new version of GoLandscape, the low-cost landscape tool for 54xx's, was released recently. What's notable about this version is that it has volume up/down button remapping, so that they behave as scroll buttons. As far as I know, this is the first solution to do this. If you own a 54xx, you might want to check it out on the affiliate PocketGear link above.

This thing is great. I have not had too much of a chance to play around with it, but just having the ability to scoll down w/ the volume button while reading in MS reader is huge.

I have read that some have had problems w/ programs not formated for it, but I think if you figure out what works w/ it and what doesn't on your own it should be great.

I personally have been turning it off and on when I want to.

Default Grrrrrrrr!

I downloaded GoLandscape a few days ago. I had only used it once, then tonight I was showing it to a friend. At first, it worked, then I had performed a soft reset (for unrelated reasons). Once my iPAQ restarted, I tried to launch GoLandscape again so I could get back to Portrait mode.

I guess in that few minute time span, the trial expired, because now all I get is a "Trial Expired" message!
Okay - great. So the trial expired. Then let me get back to "normal" screen mode!
But I CAN'T! If there is some other dialog box further down the screen, I can't see it because the screen is in Landscape Mode!
Here I am, on the road, and my device is stuck in Landscape!
Wouldn't be so bad, except for the fact that this app leaves crap from a previous screen on the Today screen! I've seen this with more than one Landscape application...

Just annoying that there is no way to defeat this application. I'll have to wait until I return home....
