Re: I should sue htc/sprint this velcro case suck

The problem with the Magnetic cases is that the keyboard sensor thingo (technical term) that senses the KB opening is magnetic. It is the same as on the Mogul/6800. Its in a different place on the TP but the idea remains the same. Whe you get a call, you lift the flap and take out your phone. Its been sitting in a position against that magnet, messing with the sensor. As soon as it gets away from the magnet it tries to switch to portrait from landscape.

Sometimes, if you are fumbling with the phone for a second trying to get a grip, you may put it just barely within range of that magnet and back again SEVERAL times. Some cases will work better for different people. Its pretty hit or miss.
