orientation

I've got a Toshiba Tablet the R15, and I just installed 5308 and I love the new tablet features except it only works in landscape... It won't switch to portrait when I swivel the top? Did anyone else have problems with this?

The automatic orientation-flipping behavior is provided by a utility that the OEMs provide. Since Windows Vista is not privy to such utilities, you don't have automatic orientation-flipping behavior in Vista.

Unfortunately, you will have to wait for the OEMs to update their utilities, then download and install them to your system, before you get this (admittedly convenient) behavior back in Vista.
