Having an absolute barebones basic telephone service from a telco for inbound calls, with the magicjack as an outbound caller(with cellphone backup) could save some serious money. Especially for those who do a LOT of monthly minutes calling long distance.
The problem, is that an absolute "basic" POTS line still costs anywhere from $15-$20/month after taxes and you're RAPED on a per minute basis both inbound and outbound.

There are no INBOUND per minute charges on a basic Pots line. And if not using the Pots line for OUTBOUND calls, no charges there either. The line would cost about $15/mo in my area with all fees included.

Well, perhaps that is a Verizon offering? I just canceled a POTS line for my alarm system that was $9/month, but after fees and taxes was $20.something per month. The rep told me that all inbound and outbound calls would incur a per minute charge, including local calls. The rep could have been wrong, but I wasn't about to start making/receiving calls to find out.
