Android Central is reporting that the Moto Droid now has "pinch-to-zoom" or "multi-touch" for the Google Maps app.

I downloaded the new update to Google maps, and sure enough pinch-to-zoom works like a charm. Very nice. This confirms what we already knew - that the hardware was capable of multi-touch, it is entirely an issue of software supporting it.
Now, I'd like to see it in the Droid browser, although the double tap to zoom works pretty well too, but there is no reason this could not be an option. APparently the Nexus One got it in the Browser earlier this week, so maybe its on the way!
