The site doesn't appear to work at all in Firefox, Firebug says:
useless setTimeout call (missing quotes around argument?)
setTimeout($.fn.itouch.checkOrientandLocation, 0);

The use of hard-coded px for landscape detection is a bad idea if you
want the script to run on devices with screens that are other than
320px in any dimension:
var orient = currentWidth == 320 ? "profile" :
"landscape";
consider:
var orient = (currentWidth < currentHeight)? "profile" :
"landscape";
It doesn't seem to use much of jQuery, so there doesn't seem much
point to building on top of it. Surely you could have provided the
functionality in your library in a fraction of the size?
iUI is less than 450 lines of code and 11kB (not minified), jqtuoch is
already about the same size *without* the several thousand lines and
54kB (minified) of jQuery, what's the point?
