The home screens don't appear to be in landscape. If I flick from left to right across the long way with the phone held the long way after trying to reorient it I still only get the spelling of one app and the number of apps in it. When going from left to right across the narrow way that is when I get the row of apps so I would think this is still portrait mode. I was thinking I used to be able to have a longer row of apps and flick across the long way on the iPhone but maybe I am confused and that only works on the iPad. I know this worked somewhere but it has been a long time since I tried it. I know that now when I go into braille touch it announces that it is in landscape ode and when I go back to the home screen it says "portrait mode" so I think the home screens are not in landscape mode.
-- Cheryl I tried and tried to turn over a new leaf. I got crumpled wads of tear-stained paper thrown in the trash! Then God gave me a new heart and life: His joy for my despairing tears! And now, every day: "This I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness."
