Make Unlimited Local & Long Distance Calls With magicJackGO

When I traveled to southern California last week, the weather was fantastic and the hotel was beautiful. But when I went to call my wife to let her know I had arrived, my cell phone only had one bar of signal strength. To complicate things, I had planned to work from my hotel room and had a conference call starting in a few minutes. The makers of magicJack had sent me one of their devices to try and this seemed like a perfect occasion to use the service.

If you have watched any amount of cable TV, you likely have seen a commercial for magicJack, the digital phone service that allows you to make unlimited local & long distance calls to the U.S. and Canada. When you hear “free” and “unlimited,” you can’t help but wonder if the deal is too good to be true. The good news is that magicJack lives up to its promise and also includes free voicemail, free call waiting, free call forwarding, free 411, and free caller ID with the service.

I had a strong WiFi connection in the hotel room, which was all my magicJackGO needed to work its…magic. The device is simple enough to use. You can just plug it into your laptop’s USB port. At home, I connect magicJackGO to my wireless router for an always on connection that is a great land line replacement. From my hotel room, I was able to call my wife to let her know I had arrived and then dialed into my conference call. No one ever asked if I was using a VOIP service or said anything about my connection. The audio was crystal clear the entire time.

When you purchase a magicJackGO, includes 1 year of free service. You also get a free conference call number, which is nice if you work from home or travel a lot like I do. As long as you have an internet connection, you can stay productive wherever you go.

If you frequently talk to friends or family internationally, you can make calls between magicJack devices for free. If you are traveling internationally, you can avoid using cell phone minutes and use your magicJack device to make unlimited local & long distance calls to the U.S. and Canada.
