I just re-read this and think I should clarify - the Ipaq screen is 240w x
320h.  The 320M is 320w x 240h

When displaying an 'image' of the 240x320 Ipaq on the 320M you have the
sides cut off (like 90 degree tilted letterboxing) and the text is not
readable.  If you "landscape" the Ipaq display (meaning the CF card's
output) then the 320M is nicely readable (and full-screen).  But to orient
it properly you need to tilt the display 90 degrees.

"Right side up" on Ipaq (240x320) = "Landscape" on Kopin 320M (320x240).
