Handset Orientation detection

Is there a way I can detect the orientation of the handset with respect to the user i.e. if the handset is held horizontal / vertical?

possibly, if the handset has the functionality to detect it itself and that functionality is exposed through a public API.
You'd have to see the documentation for each individual handset for it, or maybe it's by now available through the operating system (though I doubt it).

Orientation detection is part of JSR 179. However it's not available on
all handsets, as that depends on it having a compass. Uou can get an
example of use of the Orientation class of Location API here:

There is also a Mobile Sensor API (JSR 256) that Nokia led the spec for but I have yet to find any decent info about JSR 256 anywhere or anything about a reference implementation or supporting hardware though.

on to Java Technology for the Wireless Industry (JTWI). MSA is
defined through the Java Community Process (JCP) as JSR 248 by an
expert group of leading mobile device manufacturers, wireless
carriers, and software vendors. The MSA specification aims to address
fragmentation issues and create a predictable environment for
application developers who build applications for mobile handsets.
The specification defines a standard set of application functionality
for mobile devices, while clarifying interactions between various
technologies associated with the CLDC and MIDP specifications.
Got a question about MSA? Post it during this session and get answers
from Mikhail Gorshenev, E-ming Saung, and Hinkmond Wong. Mikhail
Gorshenev is Sun's lead for the JSR 248 Technology Conformance Kit
(TCK). E-Ming Saung is the Product Line Manager in the Java ME
Marketing group and is mainly responsible for managing the product
delivery of Java ME SDKs to all mobile Java Developers. Hinkmond Wong
is one of the current project owners of the phoneME open source
project and was the past specification lead for various mobility-
related technologies such as the Java ME Connected Device
Configuration (CDC) and Foundation Profile.

The upcoming K850 and W910 from Sony Ericsson support JSR 256.
