Apple today announced that iPhone users will be able to enjoy YouTube content on their iPhones when they begin shipping on June 29. A new Apple-designed application on iPhone will wirelessly stream YouTube's content to iPhone over Wi-Fi or EDGE networks and play it on iPhone's display.
To achieve higher video quality and longer battery life on mobile devices, YouTube has begun encoding their videos in the advanced H.264 format, and iPhone will be the first mobile device to use the H.264-encoded videos. Over 10,000 videos will be available on June 29, and YouTube will be adding more each week until their full catalog of videos is available in the H.264 format this fall.
The iPhone will combine H.264-encoded videos plus iPhone's built-in Wi-Fi networking, 3.5-inch display, and custom YouTube application with its multi-touch user interface.

What's the point of You Tube without a 3G network? Any ideas? Wifi is only in select areas.

I hear EDGE was upgraded right before the release of the Iphone from 50kbps to 100 kbps? Anyone who has ATT for a while notice any difference is ATT blowing hot air?
