What about web browsers? Or are you grouping that into the "that's up to an individual developers" category? Which I sorta agree on though MicroB is "official" so yeah.

Aaah. In that case, "first batch" for me would definitely include:
Screen saver (the only one of these I voted for, and I don't know if I can change my vote)
Dashboard
Media Player
And maybe (in the first batch):
Contacts
Calendar (day view, event view, task list)
While I would like to have T9, Qwerty, Messaging, and Email in the first batch, I can wait til the 2nd batch.
I just realized that "Browser" isn't on the list... the fennec news might make that moot (or maybe I missed/forgot the news for this already being done), but I definitely think the built-in browser should be in the first batch.

Just because it will mess the widgets on the home screen is never a valid reason for the lack of portrait mode.
To put it simply
"portrait mode >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>> wide widgets"

T9?! Whu?
If the iPhone can do a full portrait OSK, so can Maemo!
And yeah, the music player really needs to be able to do portrait.

I second media player. When I think of one-handed tasks, this is near the top. But I'd put the interface first, because it would be annoying to have to use two hands to get to a one-handed app.
As mentioned in the other portrait thread, a solution for this is simply to have a different desktop for portrait mode. Just like the landscaped mode, it'll be customized by the user with the tasks that user is likely to use when on-the-go.

They think you just need to change the way you hold the device to reach the multiple triggers..
