All 3 are valid versions of "civic responsibility", and yet are very different design cases.

This isn't an invitation to a gun debate, this is an illustration that "civic responsibility" is both "in the eye of the beholder" and "an easy avenue for elitist attempts to impose a point of view upon a populace"...
Wow! way off track with great leaps and bounds

You can modify NIT's in the past to provide portrait mode and until we see the N900, I'm not going to assume you can't with that as well.

Just like you can saw off the barrel of your shotgun to make it easier to bring into church on Sundays... or with the help of an internet provided tutorial, modify your assault rifle to full "rock & roll" in order to keep the neighborhood kids off your lawn.
