It appears that in RC2, the page height is not updated correctly after an orientation change from horizontal to vertical. I'm experiencing this issue on the iPad emulator running iOS 4.3 and iPad2 running iOS 5.

I should note that I'm disabling user zooming via the viewport meta tag: ``. On pages that have relatively little content and do not scroll, if you change the orientation from vertical to horizontal, then from horizontal to vertical, the page height does not resize to the full viewport height, leaving a strip of whitespace at the bottom of the page. This also seems to occur when zooming is not disabled, as long as the zoom is at 100% when you switch from horizontal to vertical, but the occurrences are inconsistent.

This issue definitely did not exist in RC1. Either way, I set up a demo page here: http://www.injuryfree.com/test/jqm/page-size-orientation-test.html
