After Googling around town I’ve seen lots of talk of “plugins” being developed that can do the same as what Apple’s touting.

One reporter at the conference included this line, but it's not in direct quotation, and so needs corroboration: "However, not all videos will be available next month, because YouTube needs to convert them to H.264.
