I may be misunderstanding the intent of the 12 column layout. I am using it 
to design a page that should work for desktop, tablet and phone. 

My understanding is regardless which device/resolution, you are expected to 
use up all 12 columns in a page. This understanding is verified, when I 
tried using only 8 columns, the page content is pushed to the left, leaving 
empty spaces on the right. 

So I did a 12 column layout with responsive design. Each row generally has 
two components side by side. It works great on a desktop web browser. Then 
I tried to view it on my Samsung Galaxy s3, 1280 x 720. The page is 
immediately squeezed resulting in one component on top of its neighbor. 
Funny thing is this happens even when I switch to landscape mode, which 
supposedly has 1280 pixels. I tried changing row to row-fluid, but no 
difference. 

If it helps, When I apply firebug using the Responsive Design View (set to 
1280 x 720), the container class indicates a with of 1170px  in landscape 
mode, and no width in portrait mode.

What am I doing wrong to get the phone to display this page with two 
components laid out horizontally in a row?
