Editorial Reviews:

Add magicJack Telephone Adapter to your PC and you can make telephone calls within the USA and Canada for FREE! Skype uses a peer-to-peer network, whereas magicJack uses a dedicated telephone network

Other VoIP carriers do not have dedicated telephone networks, and lease this service from other companies. That means higher costs and poorer reliability. magicJack uses its own dedicated telephone network. You can use magicJack with either a regular telephone handset, or with a headset. You can also use both, and switch between the two. You can move magicJack between Internet providers. You can use magicJack from anywhere in the world (where broadband web access is available). It requires - PC - Windows XP or Vista operating system; (Mac/Apple expected soon); Broadband, high-speed internet, cable internet, DSL - WiFi - WiMax
magicJack comes with an easy-to-use device to allow you to use a regular telephone handset. Service is free for 1st year. $20 per year thereafter.

Summary: Beware - will want to assign you some weird area code
Comment: I clearly checked on their website to see if my area code was available before I purchased this. Unfortunately, when I went online to register, my area code was not available. Wanted to give me some area code in timbuktu. Spoke with customer service, they said its not available. Now what do I do?

Summary: Magic Jack
Comment: It's nice to see some common sense users of this product for a change. The only issue with this device is IGNORANCE. After reading hundreds of I love it and I hate it posts, I've come to a few conclusions.

1: Never buy ANY free 30day trial on ANYTHING!!! Get MJ from QVC, Circuit City etc... Then you have a hassle free return. ALL 30 DAY FREE TRIAL AND GIVE US YOU'RE CREDIT CARD NUMBER Company's will set on your money and give you the runaround, duh. Your and every other sucker's money is letting them make interest off it. They ALL will bite you in the azz with the fine print. DON'T DO IT!

2: For the people that think that thing that comes out after you press the button on the front of the computer is an automated cup holder, you're too stupid to use this product. Hell, they probably have trouble operating a light switch and flushing the toilet. If you are a 1 on the (1 - 10) Tech Savvy Scale, save us the drudge of reading your negative post and don't even think about getting this product. It's way, way, way over your head. Go play with the light switch or something. MJ is a startup company running on a shoestring. It's $40 dollars! It's $40 dollars! It's $40 dollars! It's $40 dollars! It's $40 dollars! What do you expect them to do, send a tech to your house? Come on people get real. If you can't make it work then return it to Circuit City or QVC etc... Oh, you did the 30day free trial thing? DUH... you deserve the hassle. Just don't bore us with your post.

3: Paranoid people get up in the morning; check the weather etc... on Internet. Hello! Your ISP tracked what you did and the Weather web cookie and all the other cookies did they're thing. Picked up your Cell phone and made a call, Hello! Your phone service tracked and logged your call, they also knew you were home because of the built in tracking system. Got in your car and stopped at intersection, got your picture taken by traffic cam. Somebody knows where you were at the time of day. Stopped to get gas, restaurant, shopping swiped your credit card, God only knows how many people got this information on what you bought. Went to work and your employer tracked every keystroke, oh and don't forget to smile for the candid camera. I looked your name up in the White pages and Goggled Earth your address, WOW! You got a really nice house dude. Maybe I'll pay you a visit and spy on you. You think MJ gives a rip about the above information? They just want to know local information so they can push you the latest add special from the local pizza place. Unless you live in a cave, get a life because this is your life, you're just too stupid to recognize it and all the bitching in the world is not going to change it. Install this on an old Pc, stick in the closet, plug in a wireless phone and forget about it. Now it's out of site and out of mind. Just like all the above listed things you ignore every day.

4: This DOSE NOT and SHOULD NOT replace you're your phone system. Analyze what it can and cannot do for you. If it makes business sense then get it. If not, DON'T slam this product because it doesn't meet your needs. This device saves me and millions of people like me lots of money.

5: Read 1 - 4.

Summary: Well worth a trial
Comment: If,like me,you got rid of your land line years ago and have only a cell phone MG is a good way to conserve daytime cell minutes. After having one for 9 months I have worked through a problem which at first made the MG seem totally unreliable.The problem was the USB power from my cheapo emachines desktop.When I plugged it into a vista wireless laptop it worked perfectly but this was not a solution on as I did not want my notebook to have to sit around plugged into a telephone.
I had a very old unused Dell notebook with a G card and 1 USB 1.0 port into which the MG is plugged.This actually works-the dell has only 1 usb and only the MG is plugged in-it connects wirelessly to the router and this whole setup works. It may be that a powered USB hub would make the MJ work on the emachines but I am making do with for now with what I have.To use the MG with the Dell I have to wait for windows to start before I plug it in.

Summary: Works as advertised
Comment: Works great, sound quality better than Vonage, saves me tons of $ on cell phone minutes. Two minutes to set up, plug and play. For $20 a year what is there to complain about?

Summary: BE PATIENT IT'S LIKE A RUBIC'S CUBE @ 1st!!!!
Comment: It took me a couple of weeks to get my Magicjack up and running. I did get to chat w/ someone online. Although I've read many blogs that people couldn't get no one to talk w/ them. I had no trouble @ all. My problem was each night my PC would update new downloads and reboot my PC & I couldn't figure out as to why my phone wasn't working the next day. One night I decided to stay up and see what the problem was. Once the PC rebooted it automatically cut off the Magicjack. I had to download the Magicjack once again. However this only took 2 to 3 min. of my time. Yes, that's right, even if that long. Since then, I unplug my Magicjack, click on the correct download 40 sec. later my phone is working. It's that easy. For that amount of time, it's worth the money saved!!!!! The other downfall: I can only use it for 1 phone, whereas we are used to using two cordless phones and a 'old fashioned' wall phone when the elec. goes off we still had a back-up phone to use. But now it still doesn't matter; it the elec. goes off, so does Magicjack. Other than this, I love it.
