I don't have my Streak yet - but on all of my other Android phones there is an orientation setting under the Sound & display settings. On my phone it's under Menu->Settings->Sound & Display->Orientation. Some apps may also have orientation settings in them.
Never ask before searching!

Certain apps will go to whatever orientation they were programmed for no matter what orientation you are using.
