MacBook Pinch - Touchpad
Is it common knowledge that the pinch/expand iPhone style functionality works on new MacBooks? I'm using my MacBook Pro right now on the Google Maps website, and if I pinch or expand in the iPhone way, it zooms in and out as it does on the phone. I don't think I've read about that anywhere...
Nifty.

Do you mean the current crop, or the model that is still in the pipeline ?

He's talking about the MBP that he's currently using. I don't have one here to test this on.

OK.

Nor do I AP,
If only I had enough money.....
That aside, I have put the terms 'touchscreen' and 'Macbook pro' into Google, and come up with zero other than outside of Apple hacks and articles on the yet to be seen, next generation.... aka the 12 Inch Reborn Newtonesque unit.

He's talking about pinching on the touchpad, not the screen.

I don't have one, but wasn't part of the MBP the ability to perform a two-finger tap?... maybe I'm wrong....
Of course, the pinch/expand thing may simply be registering as the "scroll" command.
Correct. It's simply registered as scrolling up or down, which in Google Maps zooms in or out. Pinching is not implemented on the MB/MBP trackpad.
I just tried it.
