According to Motorola's own Web site, the Motorola Droid for Europe (A.K.A. the Milestone) lists pinch-and-zoom as one of the features in the Interface section. Sadly, the U.S. Web site for the Droid does not list pinch-and-zoom as one of the features in the Interface section. Sniffle, sniffle.
Motorola attributed the differences to "carrier preferences," among other factors. "In response to your question regarding differences between MILESTONE and DROID, we work very closely with our carriers and partners to deliver differentiated consumer experiences on our mobile devices," the company said in a statement. "At times, similar devices come to market with different features, depending on the region, carrier preferences and consumer needs."
