it is true netTALK is better than the magic jack =0) tha'ts obvious as well. =0)

Obvious to who? It wasn't even obvious to you from this post where you said that using NetTalk with GoogleVoice is problematic. It's not problematic with MagicJack.

@bitstopjoe netTALK is their own CLEC

MJ+ is not a one of a kind it's a copy of the netTALK duo even their pricing is the same. just more crap from the MagicCRAP

@Dissatisfied your customer service experience is typical MagicJack. Try netTALK duo. www.nettalk.com they have live customer service reps and live tech support. They are proffesional and very friendly. Good luck to you

Ok talked to customer no service for MJ and the agent said 69.95 and 29.95 a yr so according to the responce it's no different than netTALK. Their biggenst new thing is to be the same as their competitor. So dissapointing

Here is the audio of the sales pitch

MagicJack Plus Details
Cost: $49.95
1 year renewal $29.95
Multiple year renewal as low as $19.95

This MAY be incorrect called the MJ plus order line they gave and it says 69.95 for device with first yr of ...

True true But they will... Last update they are very far advanced in the process have done internal testing of porting and that was sucessful. BUT rollout date? that is yet to be determined......

I have been useing Nettalk knw for 6 months and after using MJ

Any recent news on porting ?
I guess they got sidetracked working on the other recent problem.

it is a delay tactic to lull u into a false sense of thinking they are actually gonna deliver on their promises for a change.
I had always questioned their promise of LNP but there is a seemingly ...

Thanks for your insight.

"What i read Nettalk can issue you a canadian phone number for 5.99 a month in addition canandian 911..."

I truly hope you're wrong about the $5.99/month and that you "read" it form an unreliable source. Because $71.88+29.95/year just for having a Canadian ...

Yep you can fax with the NT. They even point it out in their FAQ...

If and when MJ goes BYE BYE or they block the numbers I call the most then I will look into getting the NT. I wonder if they would let me port my MJ number to their unit?

Last post I read a few days ago, they don't allow number ...

I've been doing some reading in this great forum.

That's fine. I can prefer my NT devices, and still enjoy the low price benefits of my MJ. I certainly don't need to mock those using MJ.

While NT has many advantages over MJ, Magic Jack still holds on to a couple advantages (people can confirm or refute):

1) Available at retail
2) More reliable ...

Umm, no one is hating on Nettalk. The only one who is doing any hating, is you.

People are not arguing against NetTalk, they're arguing against your tone. It's tedious, and not necessary.

Well maybe your right. just trying to have some fun here. guess not so much fun after all. i will stop ...

My wife and I have had very few issues with our two magicJacks over the past year, and feel no need to dump it because you're unhappy with yours. It works fine for us.

All the evidence to disprove the point have been discussed in COUNTLESS posts!

There is no doubt that their Customer Service is superior. Appears as if the owners respond right on the forum. But that could be due more to their still small size. I have no idea, but I assume Dan was more hands on at the start too.

Too bad there isn't an Infomercial section to move this to. MJ isn't nearly perfect, but it isn't DOA, as you put it. Your opinion. Not mine.

Compare it TO netTALK and it IS DOA.... not nearly perfect? its been stagnant for how many years no new addons changes no nothing.

Obviously phone service for $20/year is a great idea. The hardware does a good job for the money, but I just struggle to understand the short-sightedness and unimaginative minds behind MJ. Instead of letting people hack it, tweak it, find new innovative ways to use MJ all the while growing the ...

Yea, my point was kind of the inconsistencies of him stating on one hand that NT was gonna knock out MJ because of how great it was, and then listing the issues with NT on the other hand.

I'm not knowledgeable enough to know the ins and outs of this stuff, but it seems like if you have driver ...

faxing is just small thing and yes i'm a shill for NT no doubt. 100% becuz its such a wonderful product. and i know no one is gonna change their hearts and minds here. but it's good to bring things out. there are people who love their old 1982 chevy nova even though there is something on the market ...

luv2uallday

r these the only things you people can throw at me to rebutt what i said? If that's the case then it further cements my case that MJ is dead and that NT is the future. I'm waiting for somebody with some real substantive points that would prove MJ is still a viable product. but to no avail.

luv2uallday

MJ is an inferior device in most cases with little advantages. The facts have been established to prove the point many times over. You can even fax on a DUo MJ good luck trying. a few pages if your lucky.

Dan has rolled over and has been playing dead for along time now. tell me what has MJ done ...

I actually LIKE chatting instead of talking to someone on the phone. Almost all the companies I deal with have 24/7 (or part time) chat services for support and I 100% always choose to chat over phoning them.

Hello I am a FORMER Magic Jack fanatic. But when I found out MJ has nothing to offer its customers I decided to switch over to the Nettalk family. It was the best decision of my life.

the $100 price isn't such a hurdle for customers if value is built into that price because in Net talks price model the 100 dollar sticker price includes the device and the first three years of service. IF value is built into that fact it can be alluring to customers noting they don't have to worry ...

luv2uallday

well that is MJ"s only advantage is market saturation. And that is where NetTalk fails at.

BUT if Nettalk can overcome that and achieve a greater market awereness it would put MJ out of business. various reasons

Simplicity no computer needed to run it (hook to up register it and start dialing ...

u r 100% right about that. maybe they aren't generating enough revenue for R&D with their price model and afraid to raise the price to make more money. or they don't care and are just using this as a get rich quick sceme and milk it for what it's worth.
