Nokia N95 gets iPhone-like screen rotation via rotateMe app

by Sean Cooper, posted Oct 31st 2007 @ 11:24AM


This looks to be a pretty handy app, rotateMe for Symbian OS 3rd edition devices -- a version for UIQ is also available -- lets you quickly switch between portrait and landscape modes on your handset. The neat bit is that by apparently making use of the N95's camera sensor, iPhone-like switching will become possible with the upcoming v2.0 software. Word has it that we can expect the auto switch feature in November but until then you can either run it manually or just watch the vid after the break again and again.

Pantech's SKY IM-R100 rotating slider

by Chris Ziegler, posted Aug 5th 2006 @ 6:53PM

Now here's one we'll forget ever existed before the day's out. We guess we can understand adding a rotating screen to your slider, if it does DMB -- Pantech's SKY IM-R100 doesn't, yet holds on to the impossibly complex form factor. In fact, the form factor is the most interesting thing about the handset, which packs a 2-megapixel camera, media player, microSD slot, and not much else. Sure, you might drop some vids on that memory card that benefit from a landscape display, but might we simply recommend you turn the phone sideways? As you might guess, this one doesn't stand a snowball's chance of making it outside South Korea's borders, and for once, we're just fine with that.
