[maemo-users] Cisco.Webex support on Iphone Why not also on N800/N810

[From: John Holmblad]

All,

in my still unrealized quest to "lose the laptop" and, since owning my 
N800 for the last two years, I have wanted to be able to use it to 
participate in www conference calls/wwwcasts, etc but without much 
success at all. Most of the www conferences  I have attended/been 
invited to have been using either Cisco/Webex or Microsoft Livemeeting, 
both of which have worked quite well for me on laptop and desktop computers.

Cisco, has wisely come to the realization that the Iphone has found 
traction in the business market and so they have announced  a Free webex 
client that installs on the Iphone.

Maybe Nokia should do a deal with Cisco/Webex to get a version of this 
client on the N800/N810.

The Microsoft LiveMeeting webaccess client runs as a JAVA app and is 
spec'ed to run on Windows XP/Vista OS with Firefox or Apple OS with 
Safari. However there is no mention of whether or not it will work on 
Firefox on Linux. I did some further research to learn that the version 
of the Java VM that is compatible with the Windows/Firefox version is 
Sun®  1.5.11, 1.6.x.

Is Nokia ever going to make Java support standard on the Internet Tablets?
