Magic Jack Update

I wrote a while back about saving money on phone service.  One of the products I mentioned was MagicJack.  My brother, black sheep, purchased a magicJack a few months back so I asked him how it was working and his overall satisfaction with the product.  The general idea is that I got was that the product seems to work great as long as you are not using it during a high traffic time for your isp.  It does start to degrade at that with large amounts of traffic.  He reffered back to his trip to Egypt when he took the magicJack with him and had no problems making phone calls back to the states.  He said setup was very easy and it has worked pretty flawlessly overall.  His final opinion is that for the price  you cannot beat the quality of MagicJack.  

MagicJack is currently running a 30 day risk free trial. The service costs $40 for the first year (this pays for the equipment and service) and then $20 for each additional year.
