Multi-touch and the Motorola Droid get friendly
Monday, February 8, 2010 2:20
The Nexus One has been multi-touching itself with all kinds of pinch zoom functionality for days now, while Motorola (NYSE: MOT) Droid users have been left wanting a quick and convenient way to zoom in and out of web pages and Google (NSDQ: GOOG) Maps. Today, thanks to an otherwise unassuming update to the Android Google Maps app, Droids across the nation can now pinch-zoom their hearts out.
The Google Maps 3.4.0 update is now available in the Android Market. Fire up your Droid, head over to the Android Market, and update your Google Maps app. It’s that simple. Well, it’s not as simple as the over-the-air update for the Nexus One, but at least you can control when you get the update this way. You’ll be up and multi-touching your Droid like it’s going out of style in no time flat.
Hey, iPhone, looking over your shoulder much?
