Magic Jack = A-OK

I had written on February 15 about an almost-free phone called magicJack, which is a gismo Ed bought in Wal-mart. 

 
The magicJack is plugged into the computer and the wire from that goes into a regular phone.  We learned that wireless phones sometimes gave static so we now use a phone with a direct wire and it's working fine -- even in these hills in the country!   http://www.magicjack.com/5/index.asp 

The gismo and first year is about $40 and after that it's about $20 for a whole year -- including free long distance.  

Mary is now convinced that it works well.  It's such a deal and much easier to talk on than a cell phone.  So, it's an A+ for magicJack.
