Portrait
Landscape
No preference / interchangable
The reason I usually have it to the right is some games FORCE it that way..they won't rotate around.
I hold it to the right b/c I prefer the speakers on the right top (where my hand isnt) as opposed to the left bottom, covered by my left hand.
Its funny, because I actually find myself flipping it around when i notice the button is on the left, even when it doesnt make a difference...creature of habit i guess.
Landscape almost exclusively with button on left. I do not handle mine very much as I got one of the Griffin stands and leave it on there.
Portrait when I'm surfing the Net or checking my e-mails. If I'm holding the iPad then it's portrait but if it's docked and I'm using the keyboard I have it on landscape.
I switch back and forth pretty equally
Portrait almost all of the time - since I'm mainly reading books/magazines or browsing the web.
People who watch a lot of video or play games will probably prefer landscape.
