Getting standarized, WebM: OpenSource video

This are great news for us! All of us! Specially for people wishing to use all HTML5 features ASAP like me! Today I read something that gave me even more hope, Opera already launched some builds with WebM support as well as Firefox. I'm wishing they build soon Opera Mini with WebM support so now I can fully use my mobile on all the websites, specially YouTube. Honestly I haven't seen Flash as a good thing. Even less now that there's HTML5, see what Scribd has done!
