Actually I'm in favour of the quick 'n' dirty YouTube videos. The big advantage of the video is to see the device in action, even if it's just turning it over, turning it on, and doing a few things with it. As a previous reader said, it wasn't until he saw the live video that he became interested in it. This is especially true of a device like the Touch which has the gesture recognition.
Even though I have a broadband connection, I'm not really interested in a half-GB download just to look at a phone. And of course, you've just excluded anyone on dial-up or Shaw Lite from being to see the phone.
If you want high-quality images, why not save those for a few high-res photos of specific details?
Your time, which is valuable, which you took to create the high-res video might have been more productively spent in setting down some thoughts and specs in print to accompany the quick look video (though undoubtedly this was a bit of an experiment for you and had some value for that alone).
cheers
