Default Re: HAS ANYONE HEARD OF THE "MAGICJACK" PHONE?

I guess the difference between Vonage and Magicjack is not only the price of course but, that you must have your computer turned on all of the time in order to receive or make phone calls with the Magicjack system. So actually the Magicjack is like a large cell phone the modem being your computer and the phone being the receiver. I wasn't aware of what it really was until I went to the sites you folks were talking about above in the previous messages. So the cost savings isn't what I thought it would be because I can't turn my computers off then and still have a phone service. We would have to run our systems 24/7 then. Gee, so much for the pot of gold I thought I just found. LOL..... Maybe someday we will get someone in office who will think all of these charges are really taxes and NOT surcharges and they need to be removed because we are being over taxed. Oh, that's another dream!
