E.g. when using a portrait mode messaging client.

It would be nice if the N900's UI rotated no matter what app you used. While third party apps can stipulate a specific mode such as portrait or landscape, the UI should support it natively in all parts of the UI.

The N97 is a perfect example of a similarly configure device that supports ASR and can be used as a case study.

But it's difficult to change a song or the volume, when it's locked in my pocket. The hardware-keys like (+),(-) and (toggle fullscren) could be used to control media-player, even though touchscreen and keyboard is locked.

The user would carry the device in his pocket, taking it out with one hand to quickly glance at the map. Portrait orientation gives following advantages:

1. No need to rotate the device, stored vertically in ones pocket.

2. Possible to hold and use the device with one hand, like Nokia's Symbian phones.

However, this is an essential feature for a Navigation application. The only question is how should this be implemented.
