I ended up not getting Ooma. The price tag is just too much. I'm back at square one looing for a MJ replacement. :(

The last time I was trying to fix a MJ issue it lost all my contacts. I need go drop this damn thing in a volcano.

Well, is Skype a good alternative to magic jack? I'm not educated in all the therms and ways of, Voip but it seems that I can get a sub for $2.95 per month and buy a special phone so I wouldn't have to dial the numbers on the computer. I get unlimited incoming and out going calls in/out of USA ...
