Droids tilt orientation

Now my screen works. I can go from horizontal to vertical while on the internet. But while I'm the main screen it wont tilt. Is this normal?

There was a big discussion about this way back in November when a lot of people got their phones. There were some that said their screen rotated to landscape on the home screen. Others said it only rotated on the homescreen if the keyboard was opened. I think the general consensus was that it is normal to NOT rotate to landscape on the homescreen.

Oh, you know what? I figured it out. I had to switch home++ to follow the orientation settings in sound and display

I do have a desktop widget for toggling that setting. I think it came with Beautiful Widgets ... don't remember. There are several to be had on the Market.. I turn auto-orientation OFF when I'm in bed. Umm ... don't ask. :D
