However, before considering several app downloads, some privacy issues have been forwarded and it seems like Germans need to be more aware of how their private information is being used.

Now, for the first time, new iPhones will no longer include the YouTube app by default. But YouTube has already whipped up a replacement. On Tuesday, YouTube released its own app for the iPhone.

Though the standard would be available to all manufacturers under license, there's a lingering fear that Apple may eventually own all the patents pertaining to its proposal. Plus, its rivals would have to re-engineer their handsets to meet Apple's proposed design, even though Nokia claims its solution offers "significant technical advantages.
