Tried it on my iPad and it worked perfectly on NFL.COM and MLB.COM while I could not watch any video on these sites before because of flashplayer.

Dailymotion and Vimeo both already have great html5 video support that works with iOS. What's the point? Obviously they'll add more later but why tout support for sites that already tout their native support for iOS?

It's impossible for a bookmarklet to brick your phone lol
