Just how badly most iPhone owners wanted video may be seen in the spike in YouTube upload traffic  — 400% since last Friday when the phone came out.

The surge, attributed to the iPhone 3GS, follows the general pattern of upload increase from mobile phones, some 1,700% in the last six months, YouTube noted in a press release:

The vids are pretty good, content aside, clear and not too shaky. Got something interesting?
