Magic Jack is a new revolution phone call system. It’s quick to install, easy to use and the price can’t be beat for making  unlimited local and long distance calls in the United States and Canada. Magic Jack is too good to be true

Like most products, Magic Jack has its advantages and it’s disadvantages. It will be up to you to decide what is most important to you in internet phoning and to choose the product that should work best in your situation.

Magic Jack Advantages

• Low cost to try out. For $39.95 plus shipping and handling, you receive the USB device and the license to use it for unlimited local and long distance calling for one year. Each additional year is $19.95. There are also multi-year packages to purchase at a discount.

• International calls can be free if you are calling someone who also has the device. For example, if you have a family member that lives in another country, you can purchase a Magic Jack and mail it to them. Then you can call them for free and they can call anywhere in the US and Canada free.

• Includes many features such as voice mail, caller ID, call waiting, call forwarding, 411 and 911.

• Save on your cell phone minutes by using it to make calls from home.

• Uses any ordinary land line telephone, including cordless phones. Headsets and your computer microphone and speakers can also be used.

Magic Jack Disadvantages

• Your computer has to be turned on to use Magic Jack.

• Service can be intermittent. New company with growing pains, I don’t recommend relying on it for your only phone.

• Directory assistance, or 411 is advertising based if you call it from your phone. If clicking on the soft phone screen that lives on your desktop, you are taken to a web site to look up phone numbers.

• 911 is through a different system than the 911 you call from a regular telephone. When setting up your Magic Jack it will ask you the physical location of your phone in case of calling 911. Until this service is a lot more stable, I would not rely on their 911 in an emergency. Another reason for keeping your landline phone.

• If your internet service does not work during a power outage, you will be without this phone service also. Unless you have a cell phone that will work, this is another reason not to cancel your landline phone service. Make sure you keep a phone that doesn’t use electricity on hand for emergencies.

As with most or all voip services, you must have a high speed internet connection to use this service. These services include broadband, DSL, WiFi, FIOS, cable internet or WiMax. It is not recommended for use with satellite internet.

If you are interested in having a service that allows you to make free long distance calls, give Magic Jack a try. If dumping your current landline phone service is what you need, investigate the other VOIP services that are available and that have a longer track record of performance.

I highly recommend you buy the Magic Jack if you have been thinking about it. This nifty little device, about the size of an Flash Memory, plugs into the Internet through your USB drive on your P.C; just like a thumb-drive or iPod does. I recently bought the Magic Jack because I work from home and have to pay a rather substantial phone bill every month, mostly because I have family, friends and customers all over the World and keeping in touch can get expensive. When I heard about the Magic Jack I thought it made sense.

The cost was about $$39.95 when it was all said and done. I received it in about 4 days and immediately put it to use. To my surprise the device worked right away. It only took me a few minutes to get it running and I started making calls immediately.

So, I guess what I am trying to say is it requires absolutely no technical skills to get it set-up and working. Unlike Skype, Vonage or other popular VoIP services, the Magic Jack service does not require any headphones or headsets to make calls. You can use any phone, cordless or chorded and it does not even have to be your phone; I recently used it with a hotel phone.
