No video, but here's a screenshot of Phone running in landscape with the theme package installed. The layout is not perfect but at least it's usable:



Also, here's the Calculator in landscape:

The patch, the pre-built libmeegotouch, the theme package and more information can be found from http://vesuri.jormas.com/harmattan/libmeegotouch.html.
At first, I was eager to install this patch to unlock Twitter and FB stock on landscape, then I learned that it wasn't applicable, so I decided not to potentially break my devices.

Then, after viewing the screenshots, I am more determined not to install it at all because frankly, those apps are not meant to be used in landscape mode especially the dialer. Just an opinion I want to share to those who potentially wished to install this. In fact, thread starter should put those screen shots on the first post, so that eager "puppies" can get the visual notice how the patch would affect the system.
