Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Vonage is a good choice, and Skype.

Glad I didn't get a MAC ;-) (nice looking computers but I like things to be compatible and in this case MJ is with he PC) Sorry had to pick on the MAC.
I just ordered MJ last week should get it today or tomorrow. I am real skeptical about MJ but I thought I would give it a try. If it works it seems like a good investment.

I didn't see the post from Erin asking for an update. Sorry, Erin! For the most part I haven't had many problems. I have had some very static connections that soon cleared up. A couple of times I have had no connection. I've also had it drop a call in the middle of talking to someone. For the most part, it has worked. I wouldn't state that it is as good as, or as clear as my other lines but it does work for me most of the time. I'm just so use to using my cell phone for everything now that I don't use it that much.

Unfortunately, the MJ site says that it should be compatible with my IMac, according to the processor and OS versions required, but software won't install. I did keep it though because it does work with my laptop, and I can use it as a back up if something happened to my cell. Call quality on my end is good, but the people I've been talking to have had trouble hearing me.

I got it today
Easy to setup and works fine. (PlugNplay)
Only issues I have but are minor to me
1: Alarm system (home) but I have 2 way radio so phone line isn't really needed.
2: If PC is off so is your phone. I use my cell most the time and my PC is on all day for the most part. Only at night will it not be on and those who need me at night have my cell.
3: If you care about being in the phone book white pages.
For $20.00 a year I will adjust to a few minor issues.
The calls I made were fine. I was even told I sounded better but that could be VS my cell phone. I heard her fine but once or twice I was walking around and she said I faded but not to the point she didn't understand me.

Late last night the service became crap. I tried again this morning and it was still crap. When I talked I sounded choppy to her and when she talked I sounded choppy to her. I downloaded MJ update and the problem went away but now I can her her good but she said it sounded like I was shaking the phone.
More work to be done soon
