New Multi-Touch Gestures on iPad iOS 4.3

Getting rid of the home button would be very interesting/nice, since it is one of the last things that keep the iPad from being truly orientation-agnostic. (The rest being the power switch, speaker and the headphone jack, but these don’t matter that much.)

You apparently don't use Netflix, MLB, NPR, YouTube, etc, etc. :)

I find myself looking for the speaker and volume switches a lot.

On 4.3, this would be a four finger swipe up to reveal the multitasking bar and a swipe from left to right on the bar to reveal the sound controls in any device orientation. Works pretty smooth, i'm running it now.

I meant that they don’t work against the orientation neutrality that much and can be left there.

And, if rumors are true, the camera(s).

I would like to see an iPad with 8 cameras (four corners, middle of four edges) that produce eD, but I doubt it is economically feasible to make one.
