I am sure with a simple web search you can find a place to purchase a Magic Jack. Heck, I think I've seen them selling in the local Wal-Mart!

I must say that I am having a bit of trouble getting clarity on why you want to contact me directly. I don't sell the Magic Jack; I simply wrote an article about it. I'm also not sure what you meant by filling out an application.

If you think I can help, please feel free to contact me HERE.

I've tried Majic Jack now for 6 months and find it to be extremely unreliable. I have to “restart” Majic Jack before every call. Sometimes I have to restart the computer before a call, because just restarting Majic Jack didn't do the trick. When on a call I get cut off sometimes. I've tried Majic Jack on two laptops and one desktop. It is unreliable on all three computers. If you can put up with the headaches…its a steal!!
Personally, I gave up and got Vonage instead.

The only catch is that you have to have access to high speed internet. That is if you are dialing a US or Canadian number.

I just gave my son inlaw one for Christmas and he left last weekend for Iraq. I will let you know how it works from there.

Thanks for the comment Pat! I like the idea of using this instead of roaming. I suppose you could be anywhere in the world to place a call as long as you're dialing a US number, you'll still be within the $20 annual plan.

I have been using my magic jack for the last 6 months for traveling. I have used it on woreless networks, wired networks and my sprint wireless air card. It of course works best on the wired network but it has done equally as well on wireless but the upload speed was too slow on my Sprint wireless card. I could hear the caller fine but I was breaking up on them.

I used this in Canada instead of roaming charges on my cell phone.

This is funny because I was just in the process of writing about this product in my blog and I found this. What a conicidence

This is a great write John! Thanks for the contribution.

Ironically I just saw an infomercial on this a few days ago and like you I was a bit skeptical. Not sure if it has any place in the business world yet, but definitely sounds like a viable alternative to my daughters home telephone line (which is ALWAYS in use).
