On my Iphone browsing HN in landscape just needs one time zooming to become readable. I now switched to palm pre and there it is even much better in landscape, i dont need to zoom.

yes, its a personal feling. but i think one time zooming is ok and not worth buying an app.

You're right, but I find that there are so many tap targets because of the table rows and cells that one double-tap zoom ('auto-zoom') is a hit-or-miss affair in mobile Safari . Even on the iPad, where the default font size is less of a problem.
