Iphone Interface

Is there any program out there for the vogue that allows the zooming in and out like the iphone. What I mean is how you move your fingers on the iphone to get it to zoom in and out. Is this possible with the vogue. My buddy had his iphone and I used it on the internet and man is it such a smooth interface. I love how i was able to zoom in by pinching my fingers on the screen. I really hope we can do this with the vogue.

the only thing i know of that is close is the newer built in browsers that are like the stock touch pro and diamond. they dont have the ability to just pinch your fingers but do have the ability to zoom in or out pretty easy and can naviagte thoughout the page just by moving your fingers around on the page and pulling it down and over ... on most all the newer builds for 6.5 that i have seen have this browser. I have seen that ability on the I phone and just Mac pcs in general but dont think that is an option for WinMo yet... I could be wrong though but this is all i know that is comparable.

I've been using 6.5 and opera mostly for surfing. I know u can double tap to zoom, but I really like how the iphone zoom works. Is there anyphone on sprints network that's like this.

We do not have a multi touch screen, so no we would not be able to have a feature like that.

Well, If you use a browser like Skyfire or Opera you can tap the screen twice fast and you can zoom in then tap twice quick again to zoom back out. If you use certain builds of Opera 9.5 browser, on the lower left corner you can click on the magnifying glass and a slider will come up and you can zoom in gradually by sliding the slider from left to right. As far as I know there is no "pinch" gesture on any browser for WinMo but the tap twice gesture works just fine.

the palm pre allows you to do this.

The problem with the pre is, I'd have to change my plan.

I definitely don't want to change that plan.

The best you'll get is Opera, it has the option to bring up a small slide bar to zoom in out as well. You get used to it after awhile. I personally don't like the pinch to zoom on the iPhone. I like the ease of just using my thumb to do all the work.
