I keep seeing people say that the iPhone/iPod Touch needs two hands and
it always puzzles me. It is no exaggeration to say that 95% of my iPhone
usage is with one hand, I find it the natural and easy way to use it.

The only times you _have_ to use two hands is when pinching to zoom in
and out. But you rarely _have_ to pinch, for example in the broswer you
can double tap instead of pinching and in the builtin maps app you
double tap to zoom in and two finger tap to zoom out. Unfortunately
there are a fair few third apps that have maps that don't implement the
two fingered tap to zoom out, which does mean you have to pinch in
those.

I can't think of anything in iPeng that needs two hands.
