Motorola Droid
stupid youtube searches
i did my own little test on youtube searches and of course the search on a real pc is not the same search on the droid when i type in jay z and the name of a song it pops right up on my pc, when i do the same thing on this stupid phone it gives me results that arent even close to what i was looking for anyone else realize this???

A couple of comments.
First, the youtube app on the droid is going to search for things that are optimized for the droid. Funny thing, the youtube apps for every phone I have seen that could handle youtube, do basically the same thing. they don't give you access to the "full" youtube. This is in part, on the droid, because there is no flash player. Since youtube transcodes uploaded videos to flash, they must also transcode OUT of flash for the droid (and pretty much any phone). I seriously doubt that even Google has the server capacity to transcode every video into flash, and out of flash into a format compatible with every phone that has a youtube app.
Second, you might have noticed that your google searches come back differently...
