Telepresence - a new light on the communication horizon.

Hi friends,

Just consider this scenario: decades back, we had the birth of telephone and the world started getting connected. Then came wireless communication and the world became still shorter. Afterwards came in the video conferencing and we thought, "Wow!"

It's time to say, "Wow!" again as we have a new technology called "Telepresence". Imagine not only talking with your friend in the US, but also feeling the new iPod he has recently bought. Or feeling the texture of his new and original ManU jersey. Surprised? This is exactly what telepresence has to offer.

Wikipedia says, "Telepresence refers to a set of technologies which allow a person to feel as if they were present, to give the appearance that they were present, or to have an effect, at a location other than their true location."

Imagine the plethora of opportunities it can open to the new world, where communication is crossing barriers hitherto unknown. Do a Google or visit http://www.cisco.com/en/US/netsol/ns669/networking_solutions_solution_segment_home.html for more.
