 Isn't your bandwidth requirement off by an order of magnitude?
Raw DV is 25 mbit/s, so a 100 mb/s LAN could handle three simultaneous
streams, at least in theory.

 78 GB per day sounds right.  That means only one stream per
presentation, though.  What about the screen?  Do you know of
a convenient way of switching between two cameras, live?
