Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro Mobile is now available for FREE download. Connect Pro Mobile offers users mobile access via an iPhone or iPod touch to rich communications including collaborative meetings, training sessions and Web seminars.

You can watch and listen to live presentations including real-time presenter webcam video and screen sharing demonstrations. You can see who is in the meeting at any given time, and collaborate with others using live text chat. VoIP meeting audio will broadcast straight to your device over a WiFi or 3G connection, or the meeting host may give you the option to join a telephone conference call.
Adobe will be able to use the same code to deliver this application on other mobile devices when AIR for mobile devices becomes available later this year. Adobe also anticipates iPad users will be able to take advantage of Connect Pro Mobile as well.
