Is conference calling possible?

I've set up a Windows Live Call account to call mobile phones and land lines
from my PC. Is there a way to perform a conference call like I can do with
Skype? I've read the documentation, and conference calling isn't mentioned.

IIRC, conference calls are not possible(neither audio nor video), only text

Thanks for the information. It's rare that I'd need it, but I'm surprised
it isn't offered. I'm aware there's a plug-in for Yahoo! Instant Messenger
that can enable conference calling. In fact Yahoo!'s entry has lots of
plug-in, compared to Microsoft's. I'm hoping that'll change.

Just FYI try downloading acrobat.com beta I've played with it and it works
ok for me. However, it may not suit your needs. download at:

Greetings,

To clarify, you can do multiple person video sharing in Messenger but not Live Call obviously
and not audio.
