Rich,

These are great questions.

(1) The YouTube reference is probably a goof on my part, they were turning
slides pretty quickly. Now that you mention it, however, it might be
worthwhile trying to assemble a URL that references a particular YouTube
movie and see if, like the Google Maps scenario, that Safari invokes the
YouTube native client. Any takers? :-)

(2) The Apple Team seemed to drill on this point quite a bit. They
reiterated that one of the major marketing messages about the iPhone is that
it displays the web beautifully "as is" and is the first mobile phone to do
so. They used the hypothetical that someone used to a particular on-line
banking site may not want to use the "iPhonified" version of the site should
the bank create one, so the user should always be offered the freedom to use
whatever version of the site they wish. Apple and User Freedom sounds like a
blogpost by itself ;-) Anyhow, that was how it was sold to those of us in
the audience. They didn't discourage evolving conventions such as having an
iphone.x.com version of a site or using a .mobi address -- they just
encouraged always giving the user a choice.

Hope this answers your questions.
