Interestingly, this article claims that a "Nokia spokesman" said the N900 will eventually support potrait mode throughout the device.

Also though some applications work also best in a portrait mode, it is impossible to make them do so in N900. However, fortunately, the absence of landscape mode is not some strange aberration on Nokia's part. Probably, they simply did not have enough time to include that before the device launch and a Nokia spokesman said that the problem will be fixed in time and the company will include portrait mode support in N900 browser by the end of the year, with pervasive portrait support throughout the device later.
I'm assuming that "the absence of landscape mode" in the second sentence is a typo and they meant "potrait mode." But anyway, the last sentence is pretty clear.
