The way I would put this is: why have landscape mode at all for reflowable ebooks? I think the answer will turn out to be that landscape mode is more useful on smaller screens, like the iPhone or even the K2 than on the KDX. The usual reason for landscape is to get more complete words per line with a font that is relatively large for the screen size, but this does not apply to the KDX because is has the same font sizes as the K2.
