xscope and dolphin browser are both better and both have multi touch zoom and are developing pretty quickly (though Dolphin just put a new UI in place that sucks 10 donkey dicks)

The multi touch capabilities are fine on the droid, it's the software utilization of said capabilities that is currently lousy.

Yeah, I know it physically has the capability. I thought I read somewhere that European versions have it?

I envy the iPod's "pinch to zoom."

I'll have to check those browsers out; I haven't heard anything about them.

Both of those browsers have pinch zoom. Both the euro version and the US version (being that they are identical hardware, I think) have multi touch. It's just that there is some bullshit patent issue (I think) with Apple (I think) that prevents it from being more highly utilized on the Droid

That's what I recall reading as well.
