Hey Scott, I adjusted your code to only allow scrolling in the Y direction and tried it on an iPhone for the first time. It works, but the movement/animation of it is almost non-existent. I was bummed that it was sooooo sluggish. Works perfectly on Safari 3 on my mac. Great idea and got my brain spinning with the possible applications of it. Maybe there's another way to get the movement to be at least as smooth/fast as regular two-finger scrolling of divs and iFrames?
