It might seem weird for the system to have launched without it (or a bunch of other features, really), but the PS Vita is YouTube-ready as of today, Sony has announced.
With the YouTube application on PS Vita, you can watch millions of YouTube videos on the stunning 5" OLED screen and take advantage of many of the YouTube functions you're already familiar with - you can easily search for videos, choose favourites and make comments. Your personal YouTube account is available right on your PlayStation Vita.
They're definitely right about the OLED screen being awesome, but beyond that, this news really just brings the device in line with most other mobile devices. Hopefully Sony continues to grow the feature-set of their impressive handheld for the foreseeable future.

Why not just open up application development so that these companies and the community can make these apps for you? More and more it is seeing that their tenacious clinging to the walled-garden approach is going to be their undoing.

Yes and no, does it play games... yes, do I take the games on the devices seriously... no.
Even with big tittles like GTA on mobile devices, it still isn't nor will it ever be a substitute for a dedicated hand held gaming device. (for me at least)

Sure some mobile games are innovative and original, but for the most part most are quick money grabs that the masses are seeing for the first time and thinking they are genius.
In saying that, I'm all for anything that brings gaming to the masses and makes it more accessible, i'll support it, encourage it and even occasionally partake in the enjoyment of it.
