Hi how are you guys surfing the real youtube site? im always getting redirected to the mobile version w.youtube.com... Is it because im using Omnia Opera 9.5 build1957?

Thanks

In Opera, go into options.
Theres an option in there to those whether Opera identifies itself as a mobile device (hence, the mobile version of Youtube, set by default) or to identify as a standard computer.

Even with that setting in Opera it would still take me to some sites as a mobile phone. So what I did was bookmark my youtube URL as:

http://www.youtube.com/?nomobile=1

This will take you right to their normal site on any mobile web browser

what good will the link do though since you can't watch them through that site ?

Use this youtube CAB. I've found that you really can't get much better than using a dedicated app.

Because you can watch them through the normal site with TCPMP and the Added .flv Video Flash bundle...
