I think the MagicJack deal is an entirely new kind of amazing pricing structure-nearly free. I’ll tell you something; if you’ve heard about MagicJack and you haven’t tried MagicJack yet, then I think you should. Seriously. You should CLICK THIS LINK and head right over and take the free trial. It’ll be easy for you to set up since you’re a person who

A) Has a computer

B) Has an internet connection

C) Probably has a phone line in your house that you pay $40, $60 or even a $100 and more for-every MONTH!

By now you’ve heard that the MagicJack is 20 dollars a year. But that’s NOT the whole story. I took the 5 year deal. So, do you know how much I’m paying? 14 dollars a year,that’s the best deal price. That’s a little over ONE DOLLAR A MONTH. For a regular phone. It sounds and works like a regular house phone. It’s not a toy, it’s not a joke, it’s not fake, and it doesn’t work some of the time. It works ALL the time. On top of that I save even more money because I use A T & T Dry Loop, which is DSL without phone service.

So let’s review; you’re not like one of my aging relatives, who at 83 years old, barely knows how to use a computer. You’re probably younger than 83 and pretty comfortable with computers and you pay a regular, GIANT, phone bill every month. Why? If that old guy was able to connect a MagicJack and finally “get over” on the phone companies (since he loves getting deals when and wherever he can) then why haven’t you tried it?

Here’s Why

As I said, the only thing I can think of that might be preventing you from trying the MagicJack is their so-so website. Their site is kind of simple looking and all the details are deep in the site and most people just don’t do the digging. So I tell what I’m going to do; I’m going to make a BETTER MagicJack page right here. I’m going to lay out why I think you should try it.

And I’m going to tell you right up front, that I not only have one myself, I’ve got FIVE between myself and people I know. And 6 or 7 years ago I did the same thing when Vonage came out. When Vonage came out it was a good deal. No question! But my bill kept going up a couple of dollars every few months. And that made me mad because they weren’t adding any new and amazing features to justify it. So I switched. And I had my mother, my grandfather, the old uncle I mentioned, and other people switch too. We don’t have money to waste. Do you?

Let me Explain it to You

So I’m going to try to cover all the important things I think you should know. Like how it works. See, first of all EVERY phone service is about to be crushed by VoIP, because VoIP means the cheapest long distance calls AND the cheapest international calls available (VoIP means Voice Over Internet Protocol and that means your conversation is being “transmitted” through the internet instead of a telephone line. For example, like video chat). But even VoIP companies like Vonage, Sunrocket, Packet8 and Lingo (a few popular internet based phone services) will be totally defeated by MagicJack. It’s the ultimate cheap phone system.

VoIP, internet based telephone service, uses a high speed internet connection like DSL or cable. The crucial difference is that you connect this dongle right up to the computer’s USB port and then plug your traditional phone line right into that. That’s including long distance and low cost international. For FULL PHONE SERVICE

The Price

You buy the thing for about 40 dollars, and it includes your first year’s phone service. Your second year you pay 20 dollars. Did you catch that? You initially get the hardware and service for 40 bucks. And since you OWN the hardware, after your first year it’s 20 a year. Let’s do some math.

12 months of a non-MagicJack regular phone

$40 x 12 = $480

12 months of MagicJack

$40 ÷ 12 = $3.33

You follow me? $40 times 12 months versus $40 DIVIDED by 12 months. MJ cost is three dollars and thirty-three cents!

But do you want to have your mind blown? Check this out

If we do some more math, we get

$14 a year

12 months in a year, so $1.16 dollar a month. By the way, that image is from my computer. When you have MagicJack that’s the little screen you’ll see on your computer. But that brings up a good point…

Let’s Talk About the Functions and Features

When you looked at the MagicJack advertisement  above, then you saw all the things it does. Basically, all the stuff you would expect with a “normal phone.”

So all of that stuff in the ad is great but it’s obvious,  you should really think about what a phone that only cost a dollar a month really means.

If you’ve got kids or just young people around who want their own line and you don’t want to go the cell phone route. MagicJack is a good idea.

If you just want a second line that’s not just a voicemail but that you can call out with then this is a good idea.

If you don’t want people to know where you are OR IF YOU DON’T WANT LONG DISTANCE CHARGES MagicJack is perfect. Did I mention that the device will plug into ANY computer with a USB port and high speed internet and your Magicjack phone number will still work. So if you live in Detroit and you go to San Diego and plug it in people on the other end will see the same phone number and there’s no extra charge for you.

Yes You Can Have MagicJack in Your Whole House

Not a big deal or a lot of trouble. You take a splitter and stick it in the wall. Then you take one phone line and stick it in your phone and you take another phone line and stick it in the MagicJack. 5 minutes and 99 cents and your whole house or apartment would be wired. Any phone you plug in the wall would work (that’s IF you don’t have another phone service connected at the same time).

Yes You Can Block Calls with PhoneTray

PhoneTray is a FREE piece of software that lets you do a lot of little tricks, and one of those tricks is to block calls. Ask your current phone company how much they want for this feature and then prepare yourself for the shock!

Yes You Can Use it to Fax

Yeah. Again, no trouble. I did some faxing this week. And I started to fax and then remembered I should take a screenshot, so I stopped in the middle and started over and got this picture right off my computer.

This is a good time to also talk about how much INTERNET SPEED do you need for MagicJack. Technically you’re supposed to have a broadband connection. I guess they want you to have high speed because it’s always on (so you’re phone is always on too). But speed-wise it only takes about 5kb upload and 8kb download so you could probably use dial up-but it wouldn’t make any sense. Why have a phone to use another phone. I had my phone cut off about 2 years ago when I got DSL only (Dry Loop).

Anyway I took another screen shot of my internet usage while I was on the phone (using MagicJack of course). I could be surfing, streaming music or a bunch of stuff and still have a crystal clear connection.

Seriously, look into MagicJack and take the FREE trial! What would your life be like if your phone bill for the YEAR was $20 dollars? And with the 5 year deal it’s only $14 dollars a year. It’s a money back trial. So if you don’t like it, just send it the hell back. But once you hear how it sounds and you realize how much money you can save I don’t think you will. The point I’m trying to make is; the thing has been around for a few years now, I myself have been using it for a solid year, so what could you possibly have to loose by trying it out? Nothing. Nothing at all. But you COULD cut your phone bill WAY down. Keep in mind that this article is a PAID ENDORSEMENT, but I wrote it before they started compensating me. That’s how much I believe this is the wave of the future.

Anyway, I added some additional insights down there in the comments section so you might want to skim through it..
