For DROIDX
1. Not sure if you are using the X or what version, but YouTube has been available free of charge since v2. I have v2.2 currently.
I have 2.2. You Tube seems to only work as a stand alone. When I try to open a you tube video from the browser, I haven't had luck.
2. You have three things at play here. They all know certain things. Motorola built the phone, VW knows all things connectivity, CHARGES, and voice mail, plus various other things, and the one I think you are leaving out, Android by Google. It's the OS that you have to know and controls most of the functions. Just as WIN7 has many things in different places than XP, Android is much different than iOS. So, where to get info:
-- first, nothing beats playing with it. Sitting down and going through every setting, turning it on and off to see what happens. The setting button is akin to the right click, e.g. there are so many fields you will be in that if one tries right clicking, they will find new options. But look at the store clerk. She found it in less than two hours.
Wish I had more down time for playing. Going to take the time. Wish it wasn't called a SMART phone-not being able to use it has made me feel not smart, LOL
-- second DroidX for Dummies. I read it cover to cover. It was OK, but it certainly covered the speed dial.
Great Idea. I went and got one. Wish I had it from the beginning.

Condescending? This is an inanimate object.
Agreed. I would rather not have the suggestions.
It is a little awkward learning to navigate by moving the screen around the cursor.
Once in LogMeIn -> Settings | Global Settings | Scroll mode (choose cursor)
