It has to reload the page every time, by default, because the default action for an activity dealing with a configuration (including orientation) change is for it to be destroyed and restarted. That can be overridden, though, by specifying an android:configChange attribute for the activity in your manifest file. My uses of WebView so far don't involve any forms where keyboard input would be required, so I've been able to specify "orientation|keyboardHidden" for that attribute without having to do anything special with config change notifications. The WebView widget handles re-wrapping text and images based on view size.
