I'm not sure about the last one, but there are some video conferencing
facilities I might be able to book at the Engineering department. ISDN
point to point, or IP (probably point-to-point though).

I don't know the protocol, but its probably a standard H.??? one which
many software tools can connect to.

Last time I used one of these, it made me very self conscious!
