did you ever try it with such a real low bandwidth connection? I somehow doubt that it's really that nice to transmit WQHD desktops as is... Also I don't really get the thing about a 30 person, all hands video-conference. The only

I think a tool which is basically yet another webchat-solution but tries too push their omnipotent app onto you, no matter what, has some issues beyond security. All the "user"-friendly execution looks like some 2002 nigerian adwa
