Zoom levels

Guys,

Is it just me or have Nokia removed the zoom level that shows the text in the smallest setting - compared to the 9210?

I recall being able to set the text to quite a small size on the 9210, but the 9500 doesn't seem to go to as small text...

... The screen is excellent so I want to view as much as possible on it...

Maybe it's just my imagination...!?

From what I can tell the 9210 and 9500 have the same 3 zoom levels. Was there a particular app you had in mind?

Even so I agree that for such a great display it seems that it does not support small fonts very well, espcially in Messaging where much smaller fonts would be better and allow you to list more than 3 e-mails at a time.

Probably my imagination - but I think I had much more accounts visible in the folders pane in Messaging, and the text in the emails are huge... Probably just me...

... Not a very effective use of screen real estate tho..

For me I can have 7 folders/accounts listed in the main Messaging screen at the smallest font/zoom level on the 9500 and the 9210. But the 9500 is sharper.
