Come on! All this extra effort instead of just pinching, double tapping or swiping with your thumb is just too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These motion &amp; zoom options in the Samsung Galaxy S2 are being done using the built in accelerometer and TouchWiz 4.0.&nbsp;Yea, yea, I&#8217;m all for new ideas and innovations, but not like this.
