I guess I'll have to try making my own html5 video page and hit it from
an iphone to find out if it really can or can't do it. Youtube and Vimeo
seem to still have logic in place that assumes they need to shunt you to
a helper app when playing video in Safari on an iPhone.
At this point there really is nothing you can do in Flash that you can't
do in HTML/JS/CSS short of direct access to the local host resources
like disk storage, video cameras and such. I've heard they are working
on the video input bit.

I think that the HTML5 on YouTube is still a beta so the strange
behaviors regarding bouncing you around from program to program is
probably temporary.
I feel like I've been fighting with Adobe for a million years. I think
HTML5 is our next and maybe last great hope to kill a proprietary
system with open standards and, almost automatically, find it
supported on the OS of our choice with the access technology we enjoy.
Happy Hacking,

Apple made it's own Youtube player which launches. I assume this
player uses the native video hardware decoder rather than software to
play back the video. Note that even if you opt-in for HTML5 video you
still get shunted to the youtube player. Vimeo bumps you to the
QuickTime player. I didn't even know there was a QT player on the iPhone.

Just curious, what software is running when you view a YouTube video on the
iPhone? I assumed it had to be some variety of Flash.

Interesting read about the lack of love between Apple and Adobe in relation to
Flash and why you'll never see flash on the ipod/iphone/ipad.
