Hey Gocubs-

Can you elaborate on exatly how that zoom/magnifier thing works in the browser?

how do you get it to pull up?

how do you get it to zoom in, etc?

thanks!

Okay this will be kinda hard to explain, but imagin a magnifying glass in your hand and moving it around your computer screen at home to make text and pictures look bigger, well this is the same thing but you use your finger to move it around. You push this little button that will be placed in the lower corner of the browser to access this feature. OR you can utilize the normal ZOOM in and ZOOM out which Zooms the whole page, not just a certain part. Hope this explains it a little bit better.

Nope no portion added into this phone, infact I even tried to go to photobucket and upload, but when I hit browse to find a picture it was looking for C:\ lol so the file system on here is really weird. BUT im sure someone will develop something really soon...

One thing I did figure out, if your using the phone (on a call) and you try to browse the web, it WONT work lol

my last question
does the screen rotate by itself, or is there a button you can click and make it rotate? or you just have to open the keyboard?

thanx

I noticed in that video she started to scroll, but then the zoom buttons just showed up on their own.

What makes the zooming tools popup?

They will always be there from what it looks like, there transparent so they dont really get in the way. Im not bothered by it
