I have spent the vast majority of my coding time on this project trying to get the damn iPhone to properly handle content created for a Landscape-only orientation. I never realized how much easier life would be if I was a good boy and just kept everything in Portrait mode.
I heard rumors that the 2.2 SDK (currently 2.1) will include a fix for the landscape-mode hackery that exists now, and hopefully this will prevent me from needing to create a transform and do some sort of wild, seemingly arbitrary calculation to find the center point of my view (used in the aforementioned transform).
This really is insane. I don't know how people say they've been able to get apps going in like 10 days. Actually I do know why: they weren't creating apps in landscape mode.
