readyState issue with HTML5 video elements on ios safari
===

It seems on the iPad (iOS v. 5.1.1), Safari does not keep a video element's `readyState` value according to specification.  Even while loading from the video source `readyState` equals zero.

I've made a [demonstration jsfiddle which continuously checks the video's `readyState`](http://jsfiddle.net/XEmPZ/5/).  A funny observation: the `readyState` changes only after clicking the play button.  


Actually, I've expected the `readyState` to switch to a higher number during loading (as it is the case with all browsers on the desktop I've tested--including Safari.) Is there a workaround? Am I getting something wrong here?
