The only solution (that has been arrived at more than once) is to start off with 
a jpeg quality of 10 or 12, save the image and check the file size. If it's too 
big, reduce the quality and try again. Using Export For Web instead of Save As 
will typically result in a better quality-compression trade off, but there is no 
known way to specify the desired image size ahead of time.
