Here are the results from your snippet for my 2G Touch:
screen wxh = 320x480
avail wxh = 320x460
inner wxh = 274x376
outer wxh = 560x376 (!?)

a propos javascript... I like to use sidebars, but in case the reader finds them too small on a handheld, would like to provide a toggle button via an anchor tag that would call a bit of javascript to increase the float width in the stylesheet to 100%. This works within an individual xhtml file, and you can even make the toggle flag effectively a global variable via HTML5 local storage (so even persistent between opening and closing the book), but just can't find a way to get ibooks to re-render other xhtml files. [I even tried href="iBooks://" but this just puts you back to the beginning.]
