>>Hang on - did you just suggest that Elluminate has a whiteboard that
works with Window-Eyes?

Elluminate Live! and Accessibility Compliance

Live! provides a variety of features that promote accessibility,
including keyboard access to menus and dialogs, closed captioning,
enlarged video, user-defined color, screen reader compatibility, and
more.

In addition, Elluminate Live! is also compliant with the Rehabilitation
Act, Section 508 and conforms to the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Web
Accessibility Initiative (WAI).

>>If you have questions about Adobe Connect for online meetings, I'm
happy
to discuss this with you.

We have done testing on Adobe Connect also - there are several problems
with it, the biggest problem is the inability to enlarge type for low
vision. It doesn't magnify well, it is fuzzy flash type. If you enlarge
the chat window type, it is enlarged for everyone, so that is not a
solution.
