Instantly broadcast vital sales information to all your
satellite offices nationwide with Sony's new Internet-capable
videoconferencing system, the Contact 323. Weighing in at a slight
6 pounds, 10 ounces, the dockable pan/tilt/zoom camera is truly
plug-and-play-no assembly or installation required. It even
includes a built-in microphone so you won't have to fiddle with
additional wires. Capable of one-way transmission speeds of up to
768Kbps, the Contact 323 doesn't require ISDN lines; instead,

enables high-quality viewing as well as a resolution of more than
460 TV lines. No more worries on whether you're in focus:
Auto-tracking motion detection takes care of that.
