Next generation video is on your desk, in your pocket, and anywhere you want it!

Video conferencing has been on the margins for some time. But a new breed of low-cost video phones – equally at home on the desk or out and about – may hold the key to making video "the new voice".

We've all heard the claims from confident solution specialists. "Video is the new voice!" they say. But what does this mean to a cash-strapped local council or a business trying to remain competitive in a fast moving market? Many IT Managers need to roll out high end video like TelePresence, as well as more accessible video capabilities.

To be truly transformative for organisations, video needs to be available to all - and ever present. It needs to be simple, easy and natural. It needs to be flexible enough to work for home workers, desk users and hot-deskers - as well as the gadget geeks in IT!

All in all, video needs to be as easy to use as a telephone, as pervasive as the PC and, most importantly, cheap enough to make it all feasible...

And now, just maybe, this vision could be becoming reality. Cisco pervasive video includes a suite of next generation video phones, as cheap as a desk phone (or even cheaper!), a desktop application that delivers simple, unified video, and a mobile application capable of interacting with either. Simple, easy, and cost-effective.

We'd love to show you just how powerful and easy this technology is. To see it in action, join us at your local BT Showcase.
