I think texting speed will go way, way up, but we'll have to wait and find out.

It sucks because I couldn't use it immediately, it wasn't obvious enough, not because it doesn't look nice. And... I'm swedish so I love Scania Auto and Volvo just not the game I have to play with websites trying to use them....
Wow. Seems like you got some major problems going on. Who know what kind of crap you got on your computer. I got a Linux machine, a PC laptop, 3 Macs, 5 browsers (IE, Safari, Firefox, Camino and Opera) and they all run just fine on mine. Every platform, every browser. These are well set up sites from some pretty big companies. These sites are pretty well tested. I seriously doubt that they would release them if they cause "every" computer to crash. Just because your computer craps out on you, doesn't mean it's Flash, it probably means you got a screwed up computer (viruses, worms, screwed up system files, who knows what). I had a friend whose computer crashed every time he visited a site using Java's applets. Guess what. His Java was corrupt. Not the sites.
I noticed there's an "iTunes Store" setting now between Network and Screensaver that I don't recall before the update. If you look at Apple's Apple TV website tour, it's not there - so I'm thinking this is new.
ETA: there are a bunch of other enhancements described in this Apple Discussions thread.
But let me ask you this. Are there ANY Flash sites out there that you like? Seriously, I want to know.
Funny, I'd rather have YouTube than iChat. Makes perfect sense to me.
Youtube doesn't make any sense.![]()
Yah, like I said before, vector video is the only thing it should be for.

[Update:] and this one to name a few http://www.homestarrunner.com
I was just going to ask the same question.I saw the iTunes Store setting also.
Is this new ?
So I WAS right. There IS no accounting for taste.
Thanks for the update. I just wanted to know where you were coming from. Now I know.
So I guess you really do like those cute little Greeting Card sites, huh?.
Good to know.
sounds really good. but whenever i go to the iphone page, since the update today, on both safari and firefox, if i try to play a video it brings up a message saying please download quicktime...but im on a mac and i definately have quicktime...help me? anyone?
What about a mystery 13, 14, 15 and 16th application? There's still some room on that screen!
Why? That's illogical. Is it not a PHONE, used for COMMUNICATION? Does iChat not count as a form of communication? And would it not open non-Mac users up into a Mac OS program, thus possibly exposing people to more Mac software? Youtube doesn't make any sense.![]()
thats crazy talk, youtube is one of, if not, the largest web site in the world! Theres ample content from music videos, to tv shows, to people just mucking around. Its a great feature to add! Who needs 30gb ipod when you can stream music/video str8 thru to your phone from youtube?
makes perfect sense to me
I just don't get why having ichat on your phone is such a big deal. The iphone has a great Text Messaging layout (more like ichat than your traditional cell phone txt messaging options), and with all contacts from your mac synced to your phone you could very easily send people messages via text message to their ichat/aim accounts. So the actual "program of ichat" seems a bit over-kill. Am I missing something else?

Actually, CBS has their own channel on YouTube.More over, Youtube will NEVER stream movies and shows due to copyright infringement, unless networks such as CBS/NBC/ABC/etc would allow it, which they don't as most videos on YouTube have been pulled by Viacom (which owns MTV and other networks) due to copyright infringement.
Can anyone comment on the difference between using the dedicated Youtube player and navigating to youtube.com through the safari app????????
Basically, it's a lackluster entertainment site that Apple seems worthy enough to put on the launch of one of their biggest products. Sorry boys, but that's a bad business move (and in bad taste).
These are the differences:
(1) The YouTube App being deployed on the iPhone grabs YouTube video content from their servers that is encoded in the H.264 codec. These videos are not encoded in the same format as what is being viewed on the web now.
(2) The videos on the YouTube web site are videos that have been encoded in the Flash .flv (or Flash video) format. This requires the Flash plug-in to be on the user's browser (which the Safari on iPhone will not have).
So, in essence, even though you can see the same exact content, you won't be looking at the EXACT same files.
