you can also use a button editor(i use AEButton Plus, attached cab) for <rotate screen> that switch it right back for you after u close keyboard...
theres a cab floating around here too that uses the accelerometer for screen orientation, u can even set it to specific programs only, dunno if txting is one though, i dont mess with it
edit*** still searchin around for something better for ya... i just read apost where the guy set up voice command to <rotate screen> and it works for him, then you can slide in the keyboard, hold down talk, say rotate screen, and bingo.....although u could save a step a just say rotate screen and never open up keyboard lol
reedit** here ya go.. Gyrator 2 this thread says..
