This worked for my iphone e.
Here's how.
If I plus mail to iPhone mail. Kient from yahoo URL of e mail, I just get back to safari yahoo render which doesn't have links, however, if I forward as yahoo command, to my iPhone mail client, links are enabled and laugh movie in youtube!
In particular, the first movie I couldn't find at youtube via its suffix launched.
I shall bookmark all movies in this e mail, but believe the HTML might have specified these as address tags and I would be able to jump, not merely FTP
mail client but safari on iPhone to youtube on iPhone.
So, a section of links for iphoners rather than only embedded links (I imagine assuming flash compatibility in browser).
Steve said flash compatibility would be negotiated evidently meaning the youtube client update.
Thanks!
