Ok so I found this:

  Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
  intent.setDataAndType(uri, "image/jpg");
  startActivity(intent);

works great on the G1, the image viewing intent is just what I need -
just simple pan and zoom.

On the nexus one, it looks like some sort of native image gallery
launches instead - it takes like 10 seconds for the image to finally
display. Is there any way to modify the intent to ask for a "simple"
image viewing "mode"? I'm just interested in a simple image viewing
experience.

Thanks
