I've posted it at least twice previously. But the bottom line for me
is why bother to detect orientation at all? One reason I use portrait
is it allows me to zoom in a little more and get bigger fonts without
having to pan. If the author decides to re-format the page to give the
same size fonts but wider viewport, I'm back to zooming and panning.
If a page is well designed in the first place, there is no need to
detect orientation.
