There will also be a Schrödinger mode, where the sensors will detect when the phone is placed screen down the screen image flips left-right to be still readable from above.

So rotate 45 degrees and you'll get your diagonal mode.

This will look quite amusing as the onscreen display will always try and remain vertical as you spin your phone around.

You should be able to shake the phone to rearrange the controls, like pebbles in a jar.

Sorry to let you down. There won't be a PR 1.3....
MeeGo will join forces with Apple and Google and they will come up with iMeeGoid!
Everything will become universal, opensource and free (except for AppStore content).

I think I read somewhere that PR 1.3 will have PR 1.4 in it.
