Maybe someone on the Apple ping list has already invented this wheel and I don’t know about it??

Another question might be: would the Kindle app help at all with this?

Have you tried using a larger font and then decreasing the magnification?

Hi, Yaelle!

I'm glad you got an iPhone.

I love mine.

The only thing that I know of is to tap the screen or use your fingers to adjust the size.

I turn my iPhone to landscape, sideways, one tap magnifies to the full screen and no problem...font is small, but with my glasses it’s fine.

You’re going to need an iPhone stretcher.

You need to learn the finger gestures for the touch screen. You can magnify to any size just by pinching thumb and forefinger and then separating them. Go to the apple website for a demo of the gesture.

1 - we need a mobile version of FR

2 - the “Free RSS” reader helps me a lot to quickly go thru Freep posts.

Ps. This was typed on an Ipod.

If the Opera Mini web browser is available for iPhone, try it:

http://www.opera.com/mini/

In mobile view, the page is formatted to fit on your screen without sliding back and forth. Also, it’s very fast.
