This is someone who is laying on his side. Now imagine under him a pillow, and he holding in his hands a mobile device with accelerometer and auto rotation.

Another example would be when you're switching between that 45 angle turning point a lot. But again, you should be able to put the accelerometer off. I can put HDAPS off too...

And how does it put more text onto the screen without making it smaller (and thus less readable)?

In case by case it can allow more (ore place more efficient) text on screen because the amount of pixels from left to right increases a lot (increases with about 100%).

Oh, really? As far as I am concerned, the only difference between "entry level" (5800) and "flagship" (N97) is the keyboard (and the fact that sturdier 5800 will last longer). The rest is marketing garbage few people care about, no matter what marketing gurus say.

Really! Wow. If you'd combine this with the magic insight that the N97 is very much like the N900 maybe we should all simply buy a Nokia 5800 right now!

Fortunately, one of the nice areas Nokia N900 shines is that it has a OMAP3; much more powerful than either a Nokia 5800 or Nokia N97.

There are many more differences no matter what marketing guru naysayers would want to make you think.
