| Re: Magic Jack Setup Pictures Based upon the weight of the thing, it weighs roughly the same as a AA battery. To me I would say the battery weighs more.

| You can use the magicjack with most phones, just like with any other kind of service.
The broadband and computer have to be on, but you can close off one of the internal lines in your house and then call from any phone jack that you wish.
Calls are free in the U.S. and Canada. They are planning to have international rates. However, if the international line has a magicjack, then you can call them and they can call you for free. | |

Does the receiving party, from a magicJack international call, also have to have a magicJack to receive the calls? To make free calls, to a magicJack international line, does the caller need to be making the calls through a magicJack? | |

1 edit | Re: Magic Jack Setup Pictures Right now, magicJack only allows calls to the US and Canada.
They do not have "international" calling capability.
However, there's a post from someone who bought one, set it up, and then mailed it overseas to relatives. They can now use it to call back to the US.
You can take your magicJack anywhere in the world, and call back to the US and Canada "free". But you won't be able to call anyone in the country you're visiting.
If you have a MJ, and you send a friend an MJ in Italy (as an example), you can call each other for free. That's because even though your friend is physically in Italy, his phone number is in the US - so to MJ you're making a US to US phone call. | |

| Has anyone been using this for any length of time (2 yrs or so?) I was wondering where they get the phone numbers and also if they are bumming off others companies technology. Was reading somewhere that AT&T was hit w/ millions of dollars in fees from the companies (that add all those taxes on reg. phone bills.) What I really want to know is if Magic Jack is going to shut down any time soon. Thanks. | |

| Question on this stuff:
Has anyone figure out how their SIP stuff is set up? Registration address and credentials for the account?
If so, softphones or generic SIP adapters are an option too, meaning your PC does not need to be on all the time.

It should not be a problem as long as you have another USB port available

This is a phone I bought on eBay (not Overstock) to use with my Magicjack. It has mixed reviews but it looks good to throw in a notebook case for traveling. I haven't got it yet but hopefully this week...If you see it on ebay with best offer mine was $3 and was accepted of course another $6 and change for shipping. | |
