The Nexus One in my pocket has just been blessed with Google’s software update, which enables multi-touch pinch zooming in the web browser, photo gallery, and Google Maps apps. The lack of multi-touch support on the Nexus One’s Android 2.1 OS is considered by many to be the biggest drawback that’s keeping the N1 from truly challenging the iPhone 3GS. But, now that Google is rolling out the N1 software update over the air, the multi-touch argument no longer holds water.
Which is the better smartphone? Well, here’s a little video demonstration of me multi-touching the N1 like it’s going out of style. Enjoy!
