Help YouTube Video's taking 20-30 mins to load?

Just got the phone and loving it so far but im having major issue's with You Tube, Most video's take about 5 mins to load in low quality and in high quality it can take upto 30 mins or more which of course by that time the phone locks and the video has to restart again.

Any suggestings as to why it takes so long? Also is there a setting for video's to automatically start in high quality? And for the phone not to lock?

Is your phone on 2G or 3G?

Hi It seems that I can't have access to You Tube at all... I've seen the phone functioning well with youtube, and mine doesn't even have an app installed !
do i miss a driver or something?
The YouTube shortcut was on the home screen when I got my GS. Where did you buy it? Have you tried to look for the app in the application manager?
