This IS the Avid L2: RE: [Avid-L2] [OT] MC + GoToMeeting.com

I would go for Teamviewer; in fact I did, and I paid for it! I don't use
it for what you will, but I can play video on customers' editing systems
when I am logged in and working on them. I think you will need a very
decent internet connection thought.

There is a comparison here. http://tinyurl.com/cwq4yba

Teamviewer can be used for free as a test and for non commercial use.

That's a very interesting possibility Rupert.
It's not the situation I'm in, but it's very cool none-the-less... and
you never know what I'll need in the future.

My needs are pretty simple right now.
From my computer (with me physically operating it):
Screen sharing + VoIP + and an ability to play down a timeline with as
little lag as possible.
I'm just looking for a good (simple for the client to use and reasonably
priced for me) way to work with someone not in the room with me.

Right now, I'm going to use GTM.com and WebEx's free trials to see if
one of them is a good solution.

Cheers,

B
