Magic Jack
If you have not heard about Magic Jack yet, you must have missed a lot in the recent few years. Maybe you have missed the introduction of the device, however, it would be hard to leave unnoticed all the complaints and reviews of this tiny-tiny item.
In regards to the complaints and dissatisfaction with Magic Jack, read more about the device and the service offered by it before you qualify it as unnecessary or extremely useful.
First of all, let me tell a few words about its looks. It is a USB device that is about the size of Zippo lighter (1 side has a standard RJ-11 phone jack). The colors of the device range from white to different shades of grey, with colorful inserts and finally black.
As for the price, so it is as tiny as the device itself. The first payment you make is $40 including in advance for one year of service. All the upcoming years of usage are charged at $20 annually.
When Magic Jack was first launched in 2007, the company-manufacturer gave away a free phone number (of which it claimed it had millions) to the first wave of customers who plopped down $29.95 or $39.95, a price that as well included a full year of unlimited calling to the U.S., Canada and parts of Europe. If both people engaged in the conversation are using MagicJack the calls are free/unlimited to talk between each other. If only one is using the MagicJack then only his calls incoming and outgoing are free, local/long distance. If people try to call you from a long distance number, their normal long distance charges will apply to them.
To check out the effectiveness and efficiency of the device one has to buy it and try out. Let's agree $40 for presumably good phone connection per year is not that much. After all, if you are not satisfied with the quality you may return this ‘magic' as it comes with 30-day money back guarantee.
In order to be able to use Magic Jack one has to have a PC, where you plug in this USB device. Once you get it, within about 30 seconds, you are to register. The first thing you are required to do is to enter your email and a password into the program. You will be told that following activation you will receive a confirmation email to finish the process. Then, the program may ask your name, and approximate location for proper 911 services. After this step, it gives you the option of which area code you want to go with for where you live. Here you are - choosing any number you want.
Those who want a little more will find a fairly impressive array of features in the magicJack software, including caller ID, call waiting, call forwarding, and voice mail that will respond even if you're not online. The software supplies a softphone that works through a headset and microphone connected to your PC. Compared with business VoIP, this might be a light feature set, but for home users it's plenty.
Magic Jack can hardly be called a satisfactory replacement for standard phone service, but as a long-distance calling alternative, it could save you a nice piece of change.

Do I have to shut off electricity to install a new phone jack?
I have a loose phone jack so I just bought replacement wall jack at Home Depot. Does the electricity have to be shut off to install?
No, they're on completely different circuits. Phone circuits are very low-voltage. Regards, Mike
