Will the drivers flip the default screens as well? I could imagine using the phone horizontally a lot more, but that's dependent on whether or not I get the icon texts etc horizontal.

Mine stays on the fridge rather well if the keyboard bit is attached as well.

I guess just as it's now. If I hold it portrait: it should be portrait. The keyboard isn't shifted out.
If in landscape: landscape (doesn't matter if keyboard is shifted out.

I can't imagine why you want to do it otherwise.

At least on on the N900 once the keyboard is opened the screen orientation is locked to landscape, as you usually don't want the screen to be in portrait at all when using the keyboard.

This is especially useful when typing in awkward angles (lying in bed, etc.), in moving vehicles (bus, car, boat, aircraft, etc.) or when placing the device with open keyboard on an inclined surface.

Exactly, I agree with MartinK. I hope the software will allow that someday. You definitely don't want your Jolla to go into portrait if you have your keyboard slid out, but it can happen if the orientation is only determined by the sensors of the Jolla (i.e., when using the phone in bed). Locking to landscape when keyboard is out might be useless for a few people, but can be useful for many and just has no drawbacks at all.
