Portability

Post by wayne1935 »

According to Magicjack portability is "coming" but the info was last updated in Jan. '08.

Does anyone have any more current info on when portability will be available?

If by portability you mean having your home phone number switched to your MJ device your guess is as good as anyones. I have heard knowledgeable people say they think it is something that is very low on MJ's priority list at the moment.

stroths, for all those hot to do this (I am not one of them) I sure hope your right. The question itself it so old that it has become a thron to me just to see it posted over and over. No offense to anyone asking the question but I think MJ has just found another way of saying "Soon" and the is "Dan said it is all ready to be turned on". :roll:

Thanx, stroths.

I found the thread after my OP. I tried several search terms before posting but either I used the wrong terms, or just missed the thread. Most likely the latter.
