Yes, the viewport suggestion does work.  I got my iChat app mostly
working last night with the viewport meta tag:

Three issues that I'm still having:
* Lack of the onmousedown event is blocking my custom div flick
scroll... both horizontal and vertical.
* When the user clicks on a text box, it automatically zooms in, but
when exiting the text box, it doesn't automatically return to the
zoomed out state.  I'm testing if I can set the default size of the
text box to be so large that Safari realizes it doesn't need to zoom
in.
* The incredibly slow JavaScript execution is making my YUI animations
very choppy.
