But this ease of use doesn't come from intuition, it comes from
learned experience with other things. If I took a Droid and an iPhone
to my father-in-law, he'd be equally perplexed by both. And for him to
zoom in on a browser page, he'd need to know to double-tap on the
Droid, and pinch-to-zoom on the iPhone. Neither is anything he could
infer without prior experience. You don't go double-tapping or
pinching things anywhere else to make them zoom in.
