Apple's widely anticipated music- and video-playing iPhone will allow subscribers to wirelessly stream material from Google's massively popular video-sharing site YouTube, Apple said on Wednesday.
YouTube has begun encoding its videos in a new format to improve quality and save battery life when viewed over wireless devices.
More than 10,000 videos will be available on the iPhone when it hits US stores on 29 June, with more material added each week.
AT&T has an exclusive deal to sell iPhones in the US on its monthly contracts.
Last month, Apple CEO Steve Jobs said that YouTube would be coming soon to the Apple TV service.
