Who has tried the magicJack?

Anybody around here tried the MagicJack phone over internet system?

  • I'm thinking about dumping my landline phone and going to phone over internet. Has anybody around tried the magic jack? Does it work? http://www.magicjack.com

  • Answer:

    yes...it does!! I have it since last may and love it! but remember, if you are like the rest of most ppl who need every thing spoon-feed, then the MJ is not for you....but if you get turned on by getting something cheap, like me....well, then the MJ is for you!!! I had seen it first last year on the ClarkHoward show, so I got it right-a-way, because was ready to go on vacation to Europe. I've used it all over there, and anywhere you got high-speed Internet....now, all my friend s in Europe wanted one too, so I bought 12 MJ...activate them in the US, got an US area-code and mailed them abroad.....so now they can call me for free with on US area-code!!!! Land Phones its really easy to use....like a VoIP service (Internet phone) but you computer got to be on at all times for it to work!! You gotta download their software....but its very easy and you don't need to do nothing else...! I have it since last year...! so far I love it...I take it on vacation to other countries so I can call back for free with an US area code! Make sure you use another user account and not the admin account...also if you have trouble...check your device manager....don't do your iPot stuff at the same time...! all you get is the Magic Jack...the rest you learn on your on, or at the MJ forum! You will be up and running within 5 minutes....you can ask here questions when you get it going!! There are alot of little things you have to know........for it to work just right!! the most important thing with the MJ...it all depends on your ISP provider....! I use other VoIP on my computer, but the MJ was the easiest to install... http://www.magicjack.com/1/index.asp

I use (and have been for a couple years now) SKYPE to call my sister/neices/nephew in Saudi Arabia and Austria......I have a Bluetooth adapter that plugs into my USB front port and it connects with my wireless earpiece......and I can talk to them (but the time difference is +11 hrs) anytime, but it's best between 1000 and 1300........They go shopping after that......(with my money) Christopher

I have been using it since last November. There are a limited number of area codes available so you might not be able to get a local number. In this case you would primarily use it for outgoing calls. I would not cancel your land line till you have tried it for a few months.
