I admit that I only used zoom on the iLiad for professional reading, but here's a couple of cases I can see myself wanting a real zoom for in casual use:
1. reading comics, particularly when viewing a two-page layout that I don't wish to actually split into two logical pages
2. looking at charts and tables in a role-playing game PDF, since most of them are letter size
This thread isn't about annotations, but I've used annotations extensively when proofreading book files for later correction. It's such a useful feature.
... I'm going to hijack this thread a little. In all honesty, if I had to pick I would choose to see annotations implemented before zoom. I'll tell you what, the first company to provide a M$ OneNote-like application for note-taking on e-ink is going to be a heavy-hitter, professional or casual audience. The DR family could be a contender.
