Switches to landscape mode too easily.

Hey all,

Ever since I upgraded to 2.2, my phone seems to switch to landscape mode with hardly any movement and takes a long time to go back to portrait mode when I hold the phone in that direction.

Is there anyway to make it less sensitive or flip back to portrait mode more easily?

Thanks!

Mike in St. Louis
