Accelerometer

Hi,
I have yet to decide on my first ereader and am still gathering info.
Can someone tell me if the accelerometer or plumb bob or whatever it's called can be switched off? I can see the need for landscape and portrait modes for different documents and automatic switching is fine, but what if I want to read in bed, lying on my side? I would want the text to remain in portrait mode with the text now vertical even while the ereader is turned 90 degrees from normal.
