To my knowledge, there has never been a firmware that supported landscape mode.

If you really need to read in landscape mode, you can achieve something like that by converting your files into kepub format and setting
Code:
html {-epub-writing-mode: vertical-rl}
(One could look whether a patch could include this css block so that it overwrites existing settings.)

Cf. this post and that and the ones following it.

Edit: In older FWs, it was possible to make kepubs read an external css file. You can find more information about that by searching this forum.

Edit 2: The simplest way however is to use one of the alternative readers (search for KOReader, and Coolreader from the PBChess package), if you do not insist of using nickel.
