Hi mates,

after coding some stuff in landscape mode on the iPhone and a bit of beta testing I´ve realised that the orientation of the screen is not the correct for the device.
Glbasic rotates the screen having the home button on the right.
If you have the earphones pluged, is nearly imposible to handle the device properly.
If the earphones are unpluged, your hand usually blocks the little sound output hole on the bottom.
Anyone had the same problems?

I´ve been checking some of the landscaped games on the apple store and they use to be rotated the other way.
Eitherway, I remember that the iPod Touch had the earphone hole on the bottom, so a fix for one device could affect the other.
Maybe could be better if we could choose our prefered orientation...

What do you think?
Vote Cthulhu! Because the stars are right!!!!
