BeamYourScreen adds iPhone conferencing

BeamYourScreen has announced that its self-titled HTML viewer is now officially compatible with the iPhone. The viewer is meant for web conferences; once a meeting host has begun a session from a PC, iPhone owners can enter their session ID through Safari, and view the host's desktop in real-time. This includes virtually anything the host loads, such as websites, PDF files and Office documents. Up to 20 guests are supported.

Because the service operates through the web, normal iPhone controls still apply, such as zoom and tilting between portrait and landscape modes. Users cannot however make a iPhone call and run the HTML viewer at the same time, as the current 2.5G iPhone does not support simultaneous voice/data connections. A separate phone is needed to receive audio.
