Thanks for that, I had no idea Adobe had anything like this. The only
downfall is it's limited to 15 participants at a time. Their Connect Pro
solution might work though, I don't see anything about a participant
limit. They don't have pricing for that online though, which leads me to
believe it's pretty expensive. Still, thanks, we'll check that out!
