I enjoy my Magic Jack (properly spelled magicJack) and particularly like it in locations where my cell phone reception is spotty with dropped calls. Most of the time my Jaxtr calls ring on my cell phone. When I go fishing I spend most of my time in Warsaw Missouri. My AT&T cell phone service is not very good and my AT&T wireless service is slow. MagicJack does not use much bandwidth so it still works great with my wireless service. The trick is to log on to your Jaxtr account and change the ring-to number to your magicJack telephone number. Free phone calls from Jaxtr and cheap phone service from magicJack is hard to beat. MagicJack cost less than $2 a month and all calls are free. Incoming calls, outgoing calls, long distance calls - all of [+]

I've enjoyed free Jaxtr phone calls from Egypt, Canada, Lebanon, and France over the last few days. As always it's good to talk with you. When I logged on to the Jaxtr website I noticed how much easier it is to manage my account.

Calling is easier, one-click calling is right there when you log on, and Jaxtr truly is fun to use. Mobile and landline calls in the United States are less a penny per minute. Landline calls to the United Kingdom are also less than a penny per minute. That is the best deal I've seen for my international calls. [+]
