Hello Kenneth,

> Who are their competitors?

This is a good question ... I'm looking at this as a possible disruptive technology. They seem to be the only "pure software" solution that runs on commodity hardware. There are other products out there (like PictureTel) but they are much more expensive and "high-end" ... they are also hardware solutions.

Microsoft has a client, but not a conferencing server yet ... similiar to Intel. Databeam, which had the T.120 portions was picked up by Lotus/IBM ... I've heard that they are going to be providing more functionality, but no details.

I haven't found anyone that directly competes with the same functionality ...
