I get confused on the gestures so I don't like it. Try a few of them out and you'll find one you like.
Also, I use a small exe file rotatescreen.exe which can be found here in the Diamond forums created a shortcut and put it in my programs folder then put it in my quickstart menu.. I just use that to rotate when I want to use landscape in programs that are not automatic.
I do much prefer the smaller Diamond to the larger Pro for the very reason of size.. I had originally thought to get the Pro but couldn't wait so I went with the Diamond and worried that I would regret my impatience but I am very happy with the smaller phone! No regrets.

I agree completely with the size issue ... I carry mine in my front pocket. By the way, I have my "send" key (hold) set to rotate screen ... very handy.
