ha no i think you have it a little backwards there. what i said was you had to turn the thing all the way back (counter clockwise) just to get it into portrait mode. when you have it docked, it's most comfortable for the buttons to be on the right side of the phone, otherwise you're reaching too close to your steering wheel if they're on the left side. i tried it in landscape both ways and found it easier to have the capacitive buttons on the right side. because of this, if you want to put the phone back into portrait, you have to turn it counter clockwise instead of clockwise because it won't turn anymore that way.
it's really weird how turning of it works. portrait should've been the middle point of the dock so you could turn it some clockwise or counter clock wise to put the phone into landscape, depending on whether you wanted the capacitive buttons on the left or the right. instead, it's set up so that the middle point of the dock is landscape with the buttons on the left. i hope that makes sense. it's really hard to explain this.
regarding apps and landscape, yes FroYo did. but with LauncherPro you can disable that just for the homescreen. that's just a feature with LauncherPro that i like. it overrides FroYo on the homescreens.
when setting up the dock, you can't start with portrait and turn it to either left or right like you're suggesting. i explained that in the first two paragraphs as best i could. only other thing to do would be to shoot a separate video demonstrating me fiddling with that specifically.
