Portrait please. :)
And to think, I was so upset with the lack of landscape texting in the original iPhone... I NEVER text in landscape.

Landscape for web browsing, watching videos, and playing games

Portrait for emails, Facebook, Twitter, photos, and e-reading.


If I had to pick one, though -- I'd say I use landscape a lot more than I do portrait.

Portrait only, I actually switched off autorotate. Except for games, but they switch to landscape on their own anyway. :)

A lot of apps are meant for landscape mode, it feels more like an iPad when I hold it sideways instead of in portrait mode. If I don't it just feels like an enlarged iPhone lol.

Landscape, almost exclusively. It's the full sized keyboard. I can't touch type on the keyboard in portrait orientation, whereas I can in landscape. I've never been a fan if thumb typing.

I also prefer reading in landscape. I like the look of an open book with two pages facing me.
