So how come they don't give an error? Perhaps they have written just enough so that if they are used they don't do anything or give an error. Bait I say!

I heartily agree. For me the issue is that I use a reference program and want to use the inbuilt stand. Instead I have to prop the end of the tablet up on something and it invariably slides off while using the stulus.

I only ever used a Palm TX which has rotate but I understand the GVM is based on an older O/S - perhaps one which did not support rotate?
