Right now I'm not even dealing with img tags - I'm just opening the
map URL directly in my browser, and it's shrinking down to unreadable
size. I've tried a number of different static sizes, from 100x100 all
the way up to 1000x1000 - it doesn't make a difference; they all
render the same way.

I did just try your suggestion of testing another non-map image and
you're correct - it does the same thing. I'll start looking for mobile
development sites.

Thanks.
