    Pinch Zoom

    I am curious to know how much people are actually using Pinch zoom in Maps. I find myself Tap zooming more and sometimes pinching to zoom out. I think it lags to much when doing the pinch zoom to really focus in on one place.

    Old habit (former iPhone user) so I pinch. I imagine I will pinch with the 2.1 browser as well.

    It is a little laggy at first for me too. When I wait for it to load in the background then I pinch zoom. If im in a hurry I will just tap the thing until it says no more zoom levels.

    I used it once then went back to tapping. Thanks for the background loading tip DROIDMASTER. I will try that, maybe it will make pinching worthwhile.

    Tap with the maps, tap with 2.1 browser. Maps seems to have a quirky stutter when I use the pinch zoom/expand. The browser works fine, but I prefer the tap. I had an ipod touch before I had a droid, and I still prefer tap.

    tapping 99% of the time..i actually forgot that there was pinch to zoom so when i realized that i tried it out..then went back to tapping lol. Seems kinda silly to put down whatever i have in my other hand to zoom, when i can simply do it with the hand my phone is in.
