Skype might be a good option and free as well. A USB camera can be had for from 25 to 50 bucks. The latter opens another possibility as well. You aren't going to accomplish much with 20 people on a conference call unless you have an agenda. If everyone has a webcam they can easily tape a video and upload it to an "agenda" folder by a certain day before the next conference. Each participant would then download the agenda items and play each one. Then the call itself could be used for discussion instead of explanation.

Doc Jon, we do need a way to communicate. i think video conferencing would be great......exactly what we need. Would this be possible with the seed money you mentioned in your first post about this forming project? I 've got tons of contacts that would use it.
