I just tested a free, open source solution that is hosted on there servers (or can be downloaded and installed locally I believe) called Dim Dim - http://www.dimdim.com/
 
It supports uploads of power point, pdf's....has a white board....audio and video.....I tested it to see if we could use it to have a former staff member of ours host a workshop on graphic novels - he lives in d.c., I am out of Oregon....seemed to work pretty well and I was impressed.....

If you have done a recent evaluation of web conferencing software, such as
Meetmenow, Webex, DimDim, OPAL, etc., I'd be very grateful for shared
knowledge. I checked the Web4Lib archives (well, I searched against them
with a popular search engine...) and couldn't find anything very current.

Likewise, I'd be happy to summarize for others...
