To NATALIE.
Yes you can watch YOUTUBE and even AOL or YAHOO Videos onb this device!!!!
All you have to do is to install VTAP on the device and you will be able to view them videos. I do this and claristy is clear enough to view.
It sometimes get stuck when have too many programs running in the back ground, so I suggest close all tother running programs before using VTAP.
Email me for more other apps you would like to use,I might email them if they arte not too big for emailing.
Have fun!!

Natalie, here is some EXCELLENT apps.
Yes AND no!!!
No,you can't do it straight from the Youtube website but ONLY through this VTAP application.
Yes,you can play YouTube videos on it.Just download the VTAP application on it andyou can search for many videos.
Another nice application to have is TCMP that support all types of media files. I gotit right to ply even iPod files on it with this application.
Always install the apps onto the memory card to save space on the main memory.This will also increase the speed of the Orbit 2.
You can email me at henning.ras@gmail.com or contact me at 07763113535 UK London

i'm using an Orbit 2 in the US and all features and functions are working very well... i flashed my device with a custom WM 6.1 ROM mainly for the threaded chat and the additional Storage ROM (from 89MB to 144MB)... call clarity and loudness is very good, no bluetooth issues, 3G works well and overall i'm pretty happy. too bad there are no US carriers offering this phone...

Dear Fellows,
This is such a great phone but be careful if you make long calls this phone is worthless. it gets too hot if I talk for more than 30 minutes. and it does'nt stop there if I keep on talking it starts burning my ears. So watch before you buy....

To the person who wrote the following:
"I order mine today on a 12 month contact £30 600mins 500text plus fone was FREE...i should have it wednsday waiting for me at home...."
Sb asked again, but there was not reply, how did you get this offer? Is it a new customer offer? I'm an existing member, and they told me £35 for 18 months and I have to pay £50 for the phone (UK-O2).

Following the last comment , Ive had mine for a week and its a great little phone , but battery life will be a problem I fear . When you open the back its easy to see why , the battery is tiny ,an hour on the tube with music on takes the battery from 100% down to 60 % . Co pilot is good but I want to put Tom Tom on it as the last post did.The touch flow is very good but the speed is noticeably slower than my old XDA11i ( embarrassing !!! )All in all Im very happy though well done HTC.

Had my orbit II 6 days know, loaded tomtom 6 on it (very good, had tomtom 5 on my 1st orbit much better than copilot)New features such as the "quick list" and "touchflo" are great improvements on the old orbit.The fact that the micro sd card is acessed externaly shows HTC are listning.However some issues remain a problem, although the camera has been upgraded 3.2mega pixels (other pda/phones have 5mp) it does not perform well in anything except very good light levels.Also the high SAR value will put some people off, in this day & age seems unnecessary.

This handset is a massive dissapointment! Total touchscreen that is about as touchsensitive as my husband!
The sat nav is slow and takes forever to determine it's current location (I thought I'd try it out on a short run of about a mile or so - by the time it had decided where I was and set off I'd arrived at the destination. Also my mother in law (posh bird!!!) lives in a village with no street names just house names - this crashed the system. Isn't it these odd places where a sat nav would be most useful?
As a mac user it was pointless to try and sync this with the computer. But it did find four or five neighbours BT home hubs - pity I don't now their passwords?!!
Battery life is pants - it ran to 1/2 battery in just 1 day and no calls were made in that time.
Weight wise, yes it's heavyish but what do you expect for a pocket PC.
The games are cool but nothing you can't get beat with a DS.
Pity cause it came with so much promise. 3/10

the pda is cool, i have it already couple of weeks.
But i should say, that the camera, altough good, drops to a 2 frames when the day is little bit rainy.( not enough light ) That makes it almost useles. Also the autofocus needs the sun, if not, it takes a min to focus.
Its bit slow, with scroll in the programs, surfing the net. You could actualy see, how the interface gets drawn of the screen.
But, if better drivers come along, its hammer.
