Google's $35 Chromecast dongle made it cheap and easy to show off YouTube videos on your TV. Now, the company sees another window of opportunity for Chrome: teleconferencing. "Audioconferencing takes pain to a completely new level," says Caesar Sengupta, VP of product development for Chrome. Today, the company plans to fix that with a $999 kit that uses a souped-up Google Chromebox and Google's cloud services to make setup as painless as possible.
The package comes with an HD webcam, a speakerphone, and a remote control with a keyboard on the back, and uses Google+ Hangouts for video chat such that any Gmail user can join a meeting from any laptop, tablet, or smartphone anywhere in the world.
