Telepresence - High Definition, High Price
Vendors such as Polycom, HP, and Cisco are rolling out point-to-point video conferencing systems that offer real life video so participants feel like they are all in the same room. The Cisco solution starts off at US$191,000 for two locations and the HP solution will set you back US$425,000 plus a US$18,000 per month, per studio for maintenance.
These solution are the the exact opposite of low bandwidth, multi-point, web conferencing solutions that allow you to deploy conferencing via a software client (and web cam) to any pc. If you have just a couple of locations and a fairly hefty budget, Telepresence solutions may be for you.

Hi there. These "Telepresence" units are slick and examples of "very neat" technology, however they are very expensive. Personally, I think that the typical business client is much better served by desktop web camera units through a service provider.
