If you don't need to do anything with location awareness, then I would
suggest using V2.  I am developing an app for the iphone as well and
am having the same problem with the zoom (as well as a few others).  I
didn't, however, have these problems with V2.  The only reason I
switched was because my app needs to add location awareness.
