Thinking

 by: L Jones

Well, I finally did it. Today I ordered the Magic Jack, the self proclaimed 2009 Product of the Year. After searching different blogs and forums to see what others thought of the product, I weighed the negatives, which centered around bad customer service, with the positives, excellent sound quality, low price and jumped at the opportunity to get it.

I also solicited a response from my Facebook family and from Blogcatalog and strangely, only one person responded to plea my for confirmation that the product was legit. Andre Johnson, a friend from high school and fellow facebooker came to the rescue with the confirmation I needed to convince myself to purchase the gadget.

Another thing I looked at was my $33 a month comcast telephone bill. The triple play seemed like a great idea, but I think I’ll subscribe to the double play instead, eliminating the phone service from the plan. In the end, it’ll save me over $450 a year. I have the AT&T Family Plan and everyone has a cell phone, the house phone was basically to save on calls made before 7pm. The plan I use has 1100 minutes, and every month there were minutes rolled over, so that home phone was not as necessary as it once was.

Anyway, enough jabbering. When I get the gadget in the mail and get started with it, I’ll let you know how it goes. Fingers crossed.
