Video Conferencing
Hi Guys! I have been reading all the comments about skype these past few weeks and have to tell you that cross platform video conferencing already exists. Have a look at http://www.ivisit.com/. For $US 50 per annum you can have video telephone calls for as often and as long as you like. Check it out. Regards Ray Hirst
