I'm not sure if the current knowledge about the newton graphic subsystem
would allow for a software solution. But it could be possible to do it with
a hardware modification. <hint hint (have that PDF?)> :-)

Reading would be OK, but controlling the newt would be a bit more
difficult, as the digitizer would still be in the usual orientation.

If only we could find the manufacturer of i.e. the Nokia 9110
communicator screen, we could probably get a 640x480 screen in the same
case, brighter, better contrast, etc.
