Messages like the contacts app TAT showed off?

[eKafara]

I had my phone set down on a table whilst I read a book using it to play music. I got a message and read in my hand then set my phone back on the table. I hit a button to wake the screen after it had gone black and tried to reread the message. The message was difficult to read, but it wouldn't be if it was like that contact app TAT showed off. If the message would change depending on how the phone was held I think it could be pretty cool. It might help having the option to turn this function off in case you wouldn't want it. Would anyone else find this useful?

if by the "message was difficult to read," you mean that the scrfeen didn't rotate when you held the 9900 sideways, then you should know that only blackberries with a keyboard don't do that.

Oh I know that. I mean that it was flat on the table and the text stays flat on the screen too. I was talking about if the text moved to face the user, just like it does in the contacts app TAT showed off on the playbook.

Actually my 9930 does have the ability to rotate depending on the way I hold phone. The only way it doesn't rotate is upside down (keyboard on top). The ABC app that I have defaults to a side view with the keyboard on the right but can also be shown natively and with the keyboard on the left.
