Magic Jack Review

Ok, like many people I have my phone, cable and internet bundled.  In this day and age everything is about technology.  I have used internet phones before like Vonage, and found it to be alright however I always ended up back with Comcast where it was all bundled.  I heard about Magic Jack orginally from the commercial and being the skeptic I am, I didn't think much of it.  My mom got one for her fax line and swears by it.  So I bit the bullet and ordered one and hooked it up right away.  I really like it, the sound quality is good, you get all the features like call waiting, caller ID, phone number for life, free directory assistance, free long distance.  The aesthetixc of the product is appealing, it isn't bulky.  The only problem I have is, that you can't turn your computer off while you have it plugged in if you do you can not use it... Which makes sense since it's connected to your internet.  HOwever when running updates, or virus scans it can slow it down.  This product is a good product however I wouldn't reccomend it to people who get a lot of phone calls at home.  I dn't really have a lot of people calling me so it works for me.  But if you have a constant barrage of friends and family calling you this is good for a second line but I would stick with the landline if the case is different.
