Vskype 200 user conferencing with audio, video and application sharing

Hi all,

Vskype is an ad-on to Skype.  Skype (without Vskype) currently handles
conference calling with up to five users over the internet.  Note Vskype
rhymes with hype.  However, so does Skype but it has panned out well as a
quality voice over the internet service for up to 5 participants on  a call.
The jury is out on Vskype. I am going to give its features a test drive.

Vskype from what I have gleaned from the Vskype site http://vskype.com (and
several articles from various blogs into voice over the internet) has the
following features:

1. Up to 200 participants with an audio connection.  Need to see if that is
two way for all of the participants.  That is quite a load in itself before
you get to the video and application sharing features.

2. Video with the out put of up to 9 or 10 video cams being displayed on, I
surmise, the screens of the 200 participants.

3. Application sharing broadcast to, I assume, the 199 other participants
from one of the connected computers.   Application sharing with multiple
users can be mighty slow.   I wonder how fast vskype will be as this.

Pulling all of this together: a series of Power Point slides could be
presented during a teleconference over the internet which featured talking
head shots of up to ten panelists.  How will all of this integrates will
require some experimenting.

Has anyone taken a group on a test drive of Vskype yet,

John
