Read ALL That Tiny Print With Zoom!
"Do you sometimes struggle with the small text and graphics on Pocket PC displays? Then Zoom is the tool for you. This small utility lets you instantly see a high quality bi-cubic zoomed area of any part of the display."
"Zoom works with any Pocket PC application. With a quick press of a button and a tap on the screen, an easily readable, fully scrollable zoomed-in view is displayed. This application also works in landscape mode and on the new high resolution Windows Mobile 2003 SE devices."
Zoom's features include:
� Will work with any application.
� Can be assigned to any hardware button
� Zoomed screen can scroll by dragging the stylus
� Superb high quality bi-cubic zoomed area
� Choice of 3 ways to display the zoomed image: full screen, top/bottom screen section or under stylus.
� Works on the new high resolution screen Pocket PC''s.
You can grab a free 2-day demo version buy the full version for $12.00 from the Handango site.
At the risk of setting myself up for a bunch of "old guy" jokes, I just may have to give this a try. I don't have a LOT of trouble reading stuff on my Pocket PC, but Zoom might also prove to be more convenient than the multiple clicks needed for most applications' internal "View/Zoom" capabilities.

$12 seems a lot for a 'small utility' that you'd only use occasionally. Just as a frame of reference, an identical app is freeware for Palm.
But let the market freely decide; Buy it if you want it.

Well that makes sense. Lets buy a new PPC with 480x640 resolution so we can get twice as much on the screen, and then buy this neat little app so that we can read it :lol:
