The fact that the attachments would be so large that they would get rejected by all current Spam Filters not to mention ISP's Mail Servers.

Web Cams require about GIG a minute to store Video to for saving and doing as you please with it.

Not many Mail Clients would work with attachments that big.

So who pays for the Transmitting?

It's doomed to fail and blow costs out the window so I can not see it working under the current Technology. Video Conferencing is a Nightmare to administer at best I can not see Joe & Jane Public wanting to waste their time and money on things like this.

OH-HAL...What kinda VC problems have you encountered to turn you off of it (despite bandwidth)?

We have Tandburg 800 systems at all of our Regional Offices 8. The only real issues we deal with are "superusers" messing with settings they have no idea what they do and then our projector boy has to come running to change back. Laptop video out seems to confuse the heck out of them too.

To make it better and it no longer works. They drive me nut when they just have to play with things because there are there.

OH and the Bandwidth didn't help one place who ran it into the ground and then got hit with a massive Excess Usage bill. What do they say about Children and their New Play Toys? :D
