And I would think that most of the time the panning is being done on a screen that's a touch bigger than 460x320.

It seems odd to me to threaten to write a bad review for an app when it doesn't act like you expect it to when compared with <insert favorite navigation app here>, when the iPhone is so much different than a computer. Yes it runs programs, but it's first a phone - small screen, small battery, small keyboard - key word is SMALL. Yes panning around is a pain, but it's a pain on every program that tries to show more information than the screen allows. Secret of Monkey Island is a nice game, on the small screen it takes a lot of finger swipes to walk around. Do I blame the game? Do I blame the phone? No I blame myself for having unrealistic expectations. Do I not play the game? Heck no, it's fun!
So my point being, don't blame the app because the iPhone isn't what you expect or want. Change what you expect from the iPhone. Hmm almost sounds Zen, doesn't it?
