The headphone jack jabs into my left hand with this orientation. Can you flip it, or allow us to do so?

I might get Bluetooth headphones to solve this.

I second this. It is quite uncomfortable to play for any period of time if I am using headphones.

One more vote here.

I mean, It's really Apple's fault for putting the headphone jack in a silly place, but it's easier to change software than it is to get a dremel and soldering iron and move the jack on a few thousand iPads. :)

Auto-rotate has been added. This is now a dead issue. RR
