Anyone seen the ad for the peanutjack?
Well here it is:
[s]http://www.rolluppianoman.com/[/s]

Edit: The ad was pulled from rolluppianoman.com
But see screen shots of the ad in post reply below.

You would think they would use peanutjack.com, but it is just a godaddy park page.
peanutjack.net and peanutjack.org forwards to the magicjack site.
Now did magicjack hurry up and register those domains to stop this peanutjack company?

rolluppianoman.com is registered to:
Telebrands Telebrands
One Telebrands Plaza
Fairfield, New Jersey 07004

Now can anyone figure out if this is done with magicjack's permission, or is it a copycat (another company)?

Why do I already smell the burn of printers printing out copyright and patent lawsuits that will languish in the courts for decades to come?

Does anyone remember the offer at phonejack.com when they first released the MJ? It was the same pricing model so I am thinking this is just a private labeled MJ sold to Telebrands for marketing. For some odd reason MJ is going towards a 1990's style infomercial campaign instead of a viral/social networking campaign. They must have hired an old school marketing guy to sell magicJack to grannies without internet who can't sleep.

Any company worth it's salt these days has an affiliate program. I am not sure what the hell magicJack is up to.

It must be the lousyest ad campaign ever.
I only seen the commercial once back in June, and you can't find it for sale anywhere.
I'm wondering if peanutjack got discontinued and the commercial was shown on MSNBC by mistake.
The ad was pulled from peanutjack.com and rolluppianoman.com

I had a feeling the ad would not be up for long, so I took some screen shots of it.

Here is the Order Form they were using for the peanutjack.

I wouldn't waste my time or money on this... it's basically the same thing as the MJ sans the explanation of the network behind it. It appears to be a shuttered project and is probably best that way.

It is my understanding that George Washington Carver invented the PeanutJack.
