TECHNOLOGY TIPS - SAVING ON PHONE COSTS
So in this current economic climate, there is always a desire to save money or at least get creative with current finances. I found this new USB device that will help you save on phone bills.
You simply plug in the USB and then attach your phone to the jack. Known as the Magic Jack, the initial cost for the USB is $39.95. You can still get in on the free 30-day trial period through the end of the day today.
Here are a couple of the main benefits of this new technology. You receive your own phone number. You get the following services with the purchase - directory assistance, call waiting, voice mail, caller ID, use in both the US and Canada.
The yearly cost for the use of the jack is $19.95 per year. That comes out to about $1.70 per month for local and long distance calling. For those of you with children in college or if you want a second line, this is a great low cost alternative. As an added bonus, all voice mails are sent to your email as an attachment. The jack will work with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Intel Macs. Yes, Apple fans, they did think of you too!
I'll be chatting with you soon!
