Don't know where to post it, so I guess I could do it here.
I installed update of swipe manager after PR1.1 and it's working again, but i think there are some differences in how it handles the accelerometer.
When I'm standing or sitting, there is no issue and it does the job as promessed.
But when I lay down in bed and I'm opening apps, there is a difference. When you lay on your right side, the phone thinks it's in landscape but shows the apps (browser, sms, etc) in portrait, which is fine (otherwise I have to turn on my left). Problem is that the gestures change and for example swiping down from nokia logo now a swipe from right to left.. really confusing as you see the app in normal view and you think you will close it.
Shouldn't it be possible to change the way swipemanager interacts and make it dependant on the app that is open? So top of the app is top of the screen (even when it thinks it's the right side)
Really difficult to explain, hope you guys understand it.. Anybody have connections with the developer?

the top side of of the device is the top of the device. if you hold it upside down in portrait, up is now the upper side of the phone (which would be the part with the ffcamera and speaker grill in that case).

I fixed it by asking my network for a new-style miniSIM and cutting that down to microSIM size.

Yeah the change in the "swipe down" detection is annoying (both N950 and N9 on PR1.1).
It used to be that you swiped from the natural top of the app (portrait or landscape) and it would close. On a couple of apps (sdl ones perhaps?) it couldn't tell that the app was landscape so it didn't quite work.
In PR1.1 they changed it to always gravity-up being the top of the screen, regardless of the orientation of the app running. Which is all fine and good until you use the phone lying down in bed etc at which point everything is counter-intuitive and wrong. e.g. Lying on your right side using a portrait app, swipe-from left will close it.
This is obviously a conscious decision to change, so I'm hoping someone left in a gconf variable or something to switch to the old behaviour.

My N9 64gb black from sgbest.com arrived. I ordered it on the 9th and received it 11th. It cost $698, and shipping was through DHL to US for $31.99 (USD). Total: $729.99. Btw, I was not charged any duty or taxes. 
This N9 is Made in China, and says Starhub. Sorry for low quality pics, using a ipod touch. My N900 died.
