Hi all,

Really nice work!!!
But can someone improve the zoom for at least iPad(might be all touchscreen 
devices). To explain the problem: view the world take on your right bottom 
Australia between your fingers and zoom in as far as you can. Even though you 
had Australia between your fingers it doesn't zoom to there. 
Basically the problem is that two finger zoom takes the map coord of the two 
fingers and keeps these at all times below the two fingers. How the math 
formula is when you rotate the fingers, there I am not completely sure but I 
guess the coordinates below the fingers are always calculated circular to the 
center coord between the two fingers.

Just see the comparison between Gmaps, Bmaps and KHTML.

Regards,

Frank
