In suggesting profile <= 390 vs the current profile ==320 I hate to
think it would be taken to anything more complex in various
environments. The goal is to make it simpler.
I started doing this because I am using the app in other environments
including an iframe on homesafari.us to non-smartphone people can get
their heads around the user experience of the mobile web and
participate with the users.

I can't think of a situation where in the real-world a width>height
comparison would produce a false positive, but simply in testing on a
desktop, changing the width the clean and easy way to test the
toggling.
