Because of my operating system, I can't upgrade to Flash 11

This site is very cool and I'm excited to be part of the beta! However, it seems a major feature (video and voice chat) won't be available to me, since Flash v11 is only supported on Mac OS X 10.6 and above. I run OS X 10.5 (old, but honestly not THAT old) and I can't afford to upgrade my computer. Is there any way that Flash v10 users can get video and voice chat support?
The voice and video are provided through TokBox. So if it doesn't function with them... at this point we have no intention to support it.
Alanna...for what its worth, Apple doesn't exactly track licenses on their OS. Perhaps its bad behavior for me to point that out but...just saying...

So, I just realized upgrading my OS to 10.6 is only $29. I thought it was a lot more than that :O I'll just have to make sure any programs I use a lot will still work fine after upgrading, and will probably just do that :)
One of the beauties of the mac platform. Cheap OS. :) Make sure your hardware is compatible...it likely is but worth checking out.

Beside that: You also can use G+ hangout as a video chat system :)
Update: I haven't upgraded my OS yet, but I've discovered that the Chrome browser has the latest Flash version built-in... meaning when I use Chrome, I have Flash 11. Tested it and video chat works just fine! Pretty cool.
