The biggest problem for me with youtube being accessible on my iphone is that my kids like to play games on my phone. I have turned on all of the parental restrictions in the settings, but for some reason they can still get into youtube. There is a lot of inappropriate content on that site, and I am not letting my kids play until I find a way to remove it. This is a real bummer, as it came in handy while waiting at the doctor’s office, etc. and kept them entertained. However, I really don’t want them listening to some girl talking about giving a bj or some guy turning his chest into a butt (yes these are actual examples that came up when I tried to see if the parental controls worked). My kindergartner doesn’t need to view things like this!

I would also like to remove youtube from my iphone. This was actually a lawsuit with Microsoft some years ago when you could not remove Internet Explorer from the Windows OS. Microsoft lost and had to put in a way to remove IE. I really hope that Apple follows suit and writes in a way to remove any application from the iphone (installed by me or by Apple).

Apple could have instantly replace my palm by allowing application developers a platform standard to foster palm-like applications. While iPhon is great, by not introducing a product which can be personalized, they limit its potential from the start. U-tube and all other applications should be up to the user to add or subtract to have the device be most pleasing to the purchaser. The reason for the terms “personal” computer and the “personal” digital assistant (PDA) is born in the fact that they can be personalized and modified to meet individual needs. This could easily be done with the iPhone. By having it as it is, I still have to carry my Palm for my pocket Quicken, my PDA Bible, my games for my daughters, etc. Closing the platform for Apple’s concept of what I need limits the device just as the original Apple was limited when compared to Microsoft. They should, and hopefully will, allow the development of apps, for modification of the desktop of iPhone, and add a slot for expansion so as to leave no room for competing devices to be necessary. iPhone could easily be the only device you need.

I am totally aware of how proud you are of this brand and I share that with you.

And of course… no brand is perfect.

Thanks for the great site!
