http://snapvoip.blogspot.com/
I am sure you have used webex at least once in a while to attend an online meeting. I have conducted an entire class over webex and that was in a totaly alien language to most of you. But the importance is that I can work meet and convers as long as I am near a computer. I have even joined a meeting over a WIFi link from under a tree on the campus. The other attendees were wondering where the bird twittering was coming from.
But now you can attend a meeting from anywhere it seems as Cisco has released WebEx for iPhone! I have a quite a few applications that run on the iPhone and I am even managing a few server via iPhone with Logmein's ignition, which by the way I use on my computers as well. But having WebEx on iPhone makes life much different!
The Cisco WebEx Meeting CenterApp (iTunes App Store link) is free and is almost same as the web-based version. Meeting attendees can simply access the WebEx via an iPhone join link in the meeting invitation.
Following are high lights and features from Cisco press release;

The solution supports multiple telephony configurations including SaaS-based telephony from Cisco WebEx Meeting Center, premises-based telephony from Cisco Unified MeetingPlace, or telephony from Cisco's service provider partners. The download is free from the AppStore. Users need to have current subscriptions to the WebEx services to schedule or host a meeting.
