I will add to this thread that due to a variety of confluences including the
need for OLPC XO laptops to run free codecs (Fedora based, so no proprietary
codecs) and hosting of several OLPC project-related videos at Dailymotion,
there's http://openvideo.dailymotion.com/ which has a whole bunch of their
videos in Ogg Theora and will run natively in FF3.5 This is a terrific site
to test drive <video> in HTML5

cheers,
Sameer
