This sounds more reliable than hardware specs that will provide the physical
screen size, but probably not the actual display width (there is always a
gap). If I can't find the info, I'll just measure the devices I can get my
hands on and provide a list for known devices and let users fill-in the field
themselves. I already publish a list of devices with their app-specific limits
and I invite users to send me the data for unspecified devices, but I haven't
received anything yet. As my application is freeware, I can hardly give way
freebies.
