[QUOTE="RavingMac, post: 1130196, member: 45350"] Don't know if this more properly goes here than in iOS group, but since the negative impact is limited to iPad am posting it here. Just read on TUAW that iOS 4 remaps Orientation Lock switch to be a Mute switch. :( I don't know about anyone else but this is bad news as far as I am concerned. I use the orientation lock all the time, far less frequently do I need to silence my iPad. For those occasions bumping the volume switch down to zero works pretty well. Anyone else unhappy with the switch? And, any possibility of getting Apple to reverse the change (or at least make it a config option under General Settings so I can at least choose which I prefer)?
