Congratulations on your purchase of the Apple VideoPhone Kit. You can
use the equipment in your kit to exchange live video and sound, view and
annotate content in a shared window, and transfer files with other users.

If you install the optional Farallon Timbuktu Pro software, you can also
use the shared desktop feature to share applications with other Timbuktu
Pro users and observe or control their computers while conferencing. (An
additional 8 MB of random-access memory [RAM] is required for
Timbuktu Pro.)

You can connect with other Apple VideoPhone users or users with compatible
conferencing software (such as Netscape’s audioconferencing software for
Macintosh, Windows, and UNIX

m a high-speed local area network (LAN), such as Ethernet
m the Internet, using a standard V.34 28.8 kbps modem, an ISDN modem, an

ISDN-to-Ethernet router, or a direct Ethernet connection (To access the
Internet, you must have an Internet Service Provider.)

Note: If you’re videoconferencing over the Internet, the quality of video and
sound will vary depending on Internet traffic, the type of computer you are
using, and network bandwidth.
