Is there a way to get the turn-to-Phone feature working across the board? That would actually make it useful: It's pretty useless from the desktop as I have the Phone shortcut there, and besides it takes more time for the N900 to realise it's been turned than to prod a desktop shortcut if you're there already.

try ctrl+shift (up arrow) + O

Try installing shortcutd. This allows you to configure the camera button to launch the phone, which means you can use the portrait mode of the browser as per the previous post, which a universal turn-to-phone would prevent. it also allows you to configure the camera button or prox sensor to work as a browser back button, thus making the portrait mode for the borwser usable.
