Magic Jack Broadband Phone Without the Cost

Magic Jack a USB device allowing you to send and receive phone calls through your computer's broadband connection. The Magic Jack device is plugged into your computer's USB port and the other end into your phone.

Selling for an initial fee of .95 plus shipping and handling. The first year of phone service is included with the purchase price. Thereafter, service is renewed each year for only .95. You can purchase up to four additional years at a time for .95.

Its' Competitor

Its biggest competitor in-terms of price may be Skype, but which does not offer 911 service.

Another problem with Skype is that security may be a big issue. These concerns are apparent when one browses the Skype user forums. There are several instances where Skype accounts have been hacked.

The Cost And Savings

If you do a lot of long distance calling VoIP (voice over Internet protocol) services tend to be cheaper than traditional landlines even with unlimited calling plans. Savings are even greater if you pay per minute charges for long distance calling.

Broadband phone providers like Vonage, Verizon, Packet8, Net2Phone and AT&T will run upwards of 0 yearly. Magic Jack is just a pittance when compared to these providers.

Some broadband phone services also require additional equipment, activation and/or cancellation fees. Magic Jack does not require additional equipment or any contracts. If unsatisfied with the service you may cancel at anytime without penalty.

Installation

Set-up is relatively simple. The USB device will install itself. Select the phone number of your choice. Setup 911 service and call forwarding if desired.

Features Include
Three-way(conference)calling can be used with a headset or house phone Caller ID Call waiting Call forwarding Voicemail Telephone number not listed in directories Free phone number Do not disturb Free 911 service Free 411(directory Assistance)
International Calling

When traveling internationally you can still enjoy the convenience of unlimited free calling from your Magic Jack phone number to all locations in the US and Canada.

Reviews

Having tested Magic Jack, I found the clarity of incoming and outgoing calls were amazingly clear on both headset and house phone.

Voicemail access once you set-up a password was easy.

You can set-up Magic Jack to ring as if it were a house phone.

Dial from your keyboard or telephone.

If you are off-line calls will automatically go into voicemail unless you have set-up call forwarding.

Switching between headset and telephone were simple.

Looking Towards The Future

At this time Magic Jack is only available online. However, there are plans to make it available in retail stores.

Although Magic Jack maybe newer than some of the older VoIP providers, it is a service well worth looking into.

With the commitment of its inventor and continual upgrades, this company appears to have plans to be around for the long haul. As with any new service there may be imperfections that will improve as system upgrades continue. However, for the price, Magic Jack may turn out to be a tough competitor for some of the more expensive VoIP providers.

USB Microphones for Voice Over Recording - Pros and Cons

Voice over recording has become much easier and convenient since the invention of USB mics. Your entire studio can be a laptop computer and a USB mic. But there are some drawbacks in using a USB mic instead of a conventional analog mic. Let's look at the good, the bad and the ugly of USB mics.

First of all, what is a USB mic? For decades microphones have been devices that have converted sound waves into a continuous analog electrical signal. This signal was then fed through a mixer to a tape recorder which then recorded the waveform on tape. When the tape was played back, the electrical signal reproduced was amplified through speakers and the original sound was reproduced. But that was so last millennium! As the new century dawned tape disappeared and sound was being recorded as numbers on a computer--digital recording. To convert sound to numbers (digital), the analog microphone signal was put through equipment that contained an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). These numbers were then passed on to the computer to record. When the numbers were played back through the opposite equipment -- a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) sound was heard once again in the speakers.

Then some bright inventor decided to put that analog-to-digital converter into the base of the microphone and send the digital signal out over a USB computer cable (yep, just like your printer cable!) and thus was born the USB mic. And the world of recording was much better... well, not exactly.

The Good. Convenience. Cost. In its simplest form you can now have a recording studio that consists of your microphone and your laptop (or desktop) computer. The devices are "plug and play" which means they don't require a sound card or drivers to operate. You just plug it into the USB port of your computer and the mic appears in your sound control panel. Traditional analog mics required a preamp, a mixer and then the A-to-D converter to get the same job done. For voice over talent this means you can record with much less investment. And your studio is much more portable. Just take your mic and laptop with you to the Bahamas and you can still nail that "must do" audition or job and send the finished files to the client via the internet. Reasonable quality mics are available starting at around 0. When you get up to around 0 the quality is just fine for VO work. And you don't have to buy all that extra equipment.

The Bad. Not quite professional. Single mic use. Early mic designs used a standard A-to-D chip that was limited to 16 bit/44.1 kHz recordings. Although this is CD quality, many pro recordings use the higher 24 bit/96 kHz standard. But this is changing. The latest mics are using a new chip that provides this 24 bit/96 kHz option. Also If you have a application where you need multiple mics or you need to mix the mic with other signals you'll need a mixer and you'll want to use analog mics. Because the USB mics are seen as computer signals, recording software can usually only handle one, or at the most a stereo pair of USB mics. This shouldn't be a drawback for simple voice over jobs where you're only recording one voice.

The Ugly. No gain adjust. Latency. Some USB mics don't have gain adjustment, or at best they have a level switch. When you do voice overs you might whisper for one job and shout for the next. You need a way to ensure that the recording level is adequate but not clipping in any performance. Analog mixers had "gain" knob that let you adjust the mic level. You shouldn't have to adjust your speech volume or your mic distance to achieve the correct recording level. So no gain knob is a problem. USB mics also have latency. This is a computer processing delay between the time you talk and the time you hear your voice. In the worst case this can be as long as a quarter second. This makes monitoring yourself with headphones annoying or impossible. The latest generation of USB mics has recognized these two problems with the addition of infinite gain knobs and direct monitoring. So you can adjust the mic gain to fit your situation. And now you can plug headphones directly into the mic and hear your voice in real time through an analog headphone jack with a volume adjust.

All In All I Like Them. I think the pros of USB mic far outweigh the cons. The latest generation of USB mics with gain control and latency-free monitoring allow you to sling your studio over your shoulder and take it anywhere in the world. Add a high-speed internet connection and it's "have voice-will travel". Bahamas here I come!

Hands on: 11.6" MSI U270 Running AMD's Zacate
www.netbooknews.com MSI had a press event in Taipei where it showed off an early preview of some of its CES wares to the local media. Among the devices on display by far the most interesting was the 11.6 inch MSI U270 which was running on an AMD development platform. A Rep from MSI let us know that it was in fact running on the 1.6- GHz Zacate Processor from AMD. The unit has a very thin bezel around its 1366 x 768 resolution display. As for other specs we know they are planning a 320-500GB HDD and up to 4GB of RAM. The U270 also offers i USB 3.0, 2 x USB 2.0, VGA out, HDMI, SD card reader and the standard audio jack, ethernet & kensington lock. The finish of the unit is very glossy and a finger print magnet just like its screen. They chiclet keyboard was very well built and offered little flex when typing. We don't know much else about this subnotebook from MSI, no release dates or prices. Perhaps we will find out a bit more during CES in a few days.

Magic Jack Internet Phone Review

Magic Jack is a newcomer to the VOIP (voice over internet protocol) family of internet phoning. It's quick to install, easy to use and the price can't be beat for making unlimited local and long distance calls in the United States and Canada. But is Magic Jack too good to be true?

Like most products, Magic Jack has it's good points and it's not-so-good points. It will be up to you to decide what is most important to you in internet phoning and to choose the product that should work best in your situation.

Magic Jack Pros

Low cost to try out. For .95 plus shipping and handling, you receive the USB device and the license to use it for unlimited local and long distance calling for one year. Each additional year is .95. There are also multi-year packages to purchase at a discount. International calls can be free if you are calling someone who also has the device. For example, if you have a family member that lives in another country, you can purchase a Magic Jack and mail it to them. Then you can call them for free and they can call anywhere in the US and Canada free. Includes many features such as voice mail, caller ID, call waiting, call forwarding, 411 and 911. Save on your cell phone minutes by using it to make calls from home. Uses any ordinary landline telephone, including cordless phones. Headsets and your computer microphone and speakers can also be used.

Magic Jack Cons

Your computer has to be turned on to use Magic Jack. Service can be intermittent. New company with growing pains, I don't recommend relying on it for your only phone. Directory assistance, or 411 is advertising based if you call it from your phone. If clicking on the soft phone screen that lives on your desktop, you are taken to a web site to look up phone numbers. 911 is through a different system than the 911 you call from a regular telephone. When setting up your Magic Jack it will ask you the physical location of your phone in case of calling 911. Until this service is a lot more stable, I would not rely on their 911 in an emergency. Another reason for keeping your landline phone. If your internet service does not work during a power outage, you will be without this phone service also. Unless you have a cell phone that will work, this is another reason not to cancel your landline phone service. Make sure you keep a phone that doesn't use electricity on hand for emergencies.

As with most or all voip services, you must have a high speed internet connection to use this service. These services include broadband, DSL, WiFi, FIOS, cable internet or WiMax. It is not recommended for use with satellite internet.

If you are interested in having a service that allows you to make free long distance calls, give Magic Jack a try. If dumping your current landline phone service is what you need, investigate the other VOIP services that are available and that have a longer track record of performance.
