Guess what? He is having the same problem with echo and unreliable
calls as everyone else has.

It would be nice if the thing worked. I could give up my house phone
if Magic Jack had a reliable answering service.

For the cheap price, missing an outgoing call is not bad, but I can't
have missing incoming calls.


I have a Magic Jack. I got it because my wife is on the house phone almost
all morning with relatives and friends, and my cell phone does not work
well in the basement where I have my office and computer. My main use is
to call my bank, credit card companies, and other businesses for support
or information.. I don't receive calls on it and no one knows my MJ
number.
So far, it works as well as a regular phone.

I hear in about 4 mo. MJ is supposed to come out with a unit that acts like
a mini cell tower for the home allowing free calls to an from cell phones in
the home for the same price.

That is one of the reasons I don't give up my home phone. I don't
want to have to carry my cell phone around the house to answer the
phone.
