The 'orientation control' app doesn't do the job?

I can say that Orientation Control set to landscape doesn't seem to mess up the arrows. Allowed AdFree to run long enough to complain about not having root rather than instantly force closing.

I'll list some apps I've tried that I don't think have been listed yet (forgive me if I repeat some known ones).

Working:
- Pulse (Has some serious display issues in landscape mode, you only get a narrow column for reading. Have not tried yet with orientation set differently)
- Palmary Weather Pro
- Redbox (Some functions don't work since you can't select your local redbox due to no location services)
- Log Collector (As of yet I haven't figured out how to get the log off the device, dropbox won't accept text and I haven't tried any email clients other than gmail yet)

Not Working:
- MOG Music (anyone have access to the HC apk for this? I've been grabbing everything from my N1)

I just installed it and here's what i found: using the Orientation Control app that installs doesn't do much of any good. Using the "Orientation Switch" app that also installs with the apk allows you to set it to Landscape mode, which for the mint.com app worked great.

I just want to thank everyone for all the help everyone has given me here in the forums... I have another question,is there any way to get certain apps to open in full screen....

Example.....
Engadget
GeekBeat.TV
Radar Now

when i open them,now that i have figured out how to use Orientation Switch, i can only view these Apps in such a small area within my screen,is there any App to get them Full screen????
