Hi guys, This is my first post to this mailing list so please bare with me. I really like Ooma. The Ooma Telo is $249 on their website or about $199 on Amazon. No computer left running. You can get their basic service (and believe me it is basic) for just the cost of the tax and FCC fees which I think is about $3.50. You can get really good service for a little over $13 - $14 per month. This includes two phone numbers too! It is a good alternative to Vonage. I have found that the quality is pretty good. Anyways, that is my two cents. I hope it helps. By the way the website is http://www.ooma.com Regards, Matt On Wed, Jul 21, 2010 at 6:00 PM, Mike Miller <mbmiller+l at gmail.com> wrote: > Have any of you been using this?: > > http://www.magicjack.com/ > > I still have one last XP box running at home, and I can use it if I have > to.
