Microsoft Communications Server, combined with MS Round Table look to put a complete new spin on how conferences are held in the future. The camera is very intuitive and move to to focus on the individual speaking, something less to deal with manually. I 
had a quick peak at the device and short demonstration last week and I couldn't help but wonder if this unit may find it's way to hospitals and surgery rooms someday. In a rural community the surgeon could have real time help from a major health care facility if needed, not to mention having the ability to connect with a Tablet PC for the ultimate in portability and information at your fingertips.

Microsoft RoundTable is an advanced conference phone with a built-in 360° camera. Microsoft RoundTable actually follows the conversation, by identifying the active speaker and broadcasting a close-up of his/her face. When the conversation shifts, RoundTable shifts with it, automatically. RoundTable has advanced speech recognition, so it can crosscut between multiple speakers without losing track of the conversation.
Microsoft researchers felt sure they could come up with one – an audio/video device that’s mobile, simple to operate and costs much less than expensive video conferencing systems. It
combines the features of a speakerphone with those found in videoconferencing into a device that Microsoft expects will retail for less than US$3,000.
