Can some folks report back if your units have the orientation option in display settings or not.
Garmin support indicates the device supports portrait mode, however the actual unit I have in hand (with current firmware) does not.
not my 61

The above Garmin link says:
Display settings
Select Settings > Display.
Orientation
Allows you to set the display to portrait (vertical) or landscape (horizontal).
NOTE: This feature is not available on all product models.
My 61 does not have this setting, maybe it's just the 51 that has it?

^^Agreed. The folks I spoke
^^Agreed. The folks I spoke to at garmin had an actual unit in hand. After some further digging, I had them check their hardware version (settings/about). Mine came with v4, they had v3.
That's what I call innovation! Perhaps they removed the feature in newer revisions and updated the documentation accordingly.
Thanks for checking.
V5
