I used a program called sk shortcut and so far I set it up where a shortcut would open astrolaunchergps, then iGO8. I need an actual .exe or .ink file that will rotate the screen. Is that possible?

iGo8 already has a setting that you can set orientation to "landscape" "portrait" or "device" You do not really need any external programs to do it.

here is a file that automatically puts the phone in landscape. example- you put the file under the startup program and the phone should startup and then switch to landscape. It might help you out

I feel like an idiot guys, just as obviousman stated in post #11, IGO8 already has a setting for this. I set it to open up in landscape mode only. Thanks obviousman and everyone else that tried to help.

I must sat though, I've tried tomtom7, garmin xt, iguidance, miomap for ppc, and IGO8 and IGO8 rules. Best nav software for ppc

You are welcome.
I am using Ultra skin with it, and full screen mode in landscape is just great.

And this, to the best of my knowledge, is the post by the original author, although it requires registration:

As people on these boards say, in 320x240 mode this skin is the goods.
Hope this helps.
