"For more than 9 years there has been an effort to promote the use of available time slots in ISDN videoconference facilities on a rental basis.

The evolution of the public room broker has helped to create a 35 million dollar alternative to compulsory travel that is really still in it's infancy.

As H.323 evolves, and international switched 64K minutes become less and less expensive, the day of the true public travel alternative may be approaching.

Our approach is to fashion Reservation and booking tools for Corporate Travel Agents allowing a convenient alternative through a familiar mechanism.

I would open up a discussion on the importance and or relevance of Public Rooms to the future of business videoconferencing."
