HTC Magic has another Cupcake up its Sleeve: Circular Zooming

Yet another pleasant surprise coming from the Cupcake Android update branch is circular zooming. Designed specifically for zooming when you don’t have more than one finger free, you double-tap on the screen and move around the wheel, similar to Google (NSDQ: GOOG) Earth. The function is demoed here in the browser and picture viewer, but it’s likely to be found elsewhere – skip to 2:05 to see it in action for yourself. In terms of availability, French service provider SFR will be offering it thanks to Vodafone (NYSE: VOD)’s 44% stake in the carrier, and should have it for sale around the end of April.
