What is 7 + 1?

I would like to better understand how large the ads users will see, how much they clutter the desktop, etc. In particular, we will likely use this mostly for sharing powerpoint presentations and sharing our desktop while viewing example websites. How will that affect the user interface?

Response:
Vyew does NO popup ads, or ads that take over the desktop. There are short 486x60 banner ads which rotate within the Vyew Interface along the top bar. These do not get in the way of the presentation.

I would like to know details about bandwith needed to share 800x600 desktop 32 bit color + camera +audio to 10 partecipant. and.. Is it possible sincronize audio and desktop sharing ? Audio now is faster. Thanks

Yes, audio and desktop sharing should generally be in synchronous now, but keep in mind that desktop sharing has a 3-8 second lag time depending on how many graphics are being displayed.  Here are some tips for Desktop Sharing.

Regarding bandwidth. We have not done any official tests on this. I would suggest for the presenter, they would need DSL 700K Upload speed at minimum.
