H.264 hardware decode acceleration has nothing to do with WebKit, Microsoft based mobile devices will not come with WebKit and yet they probably will play H.264. By the way Chrome supported Theora last time I used it. Maybe this relates to On2 acquisition by Google (Theora is a derivation of On2 VP3) and has nothing to do about Apple or HTML5 altogether, sadly the Apple bashing or praising dichotomy does not let us think outside the box about the large tech world around us. EDIT: I'm not sure if Zune can play H.264 videos or not, but I still think MS will make embedded devices with H.264 as the default video format as everyone else in the future.
