magicTalk = Free Cell Phone Calls

The company that makes the very popular magicJack product has come up with a new gadget that should make cell phone calls really cheap -- or even free -- and it's finally being released to the public. The magicTalk -- announced in January -- routes calls over the Internet in a way that bypasses the normal cell phone networks. It provides a more convenient alternative to "free" web calling services such as Google Voice.

The MagicTalk will allow unlimited calls in the US and Canada. Special versions for the various smartphone models -- including the iPhone, BlackBerry, and Android -- will be available in the fall. A version for the Apple iPad will also be released soon. The product's maker -- VocalTec -- operates as its own phone company and provides unique phone numbers to each user.

Good news is you want to start making free long-distance and cheap international calls, even on your cell phone!

Free Cell Phone Calls from magicJack on the Way?

The company that makes the popular magicJack gadget has released a new version that allows users to make free cell phone calls in their homes. They've just announced it at the Consumers Electronics Show in Las Vegas and the news is taking the blog-o-sphere by storm. The new device is basically a small personal "cell tower" that uses radio frequencies normally reserved for cellular carriers to communicate with a mobile phone in the house. All you need is a broadband internet connection, a PC computer, and a compatible cell phone.

According to the company, when you use the new magicJack your calls are not routed through your mobile carrier's local cell tower, meaning that no minutes/credits are deducted from your account. In the case of international calls, small fees are subtracted from a special magicJack account under your name, not you cellular service account. The product will sell for around $40 and will be available around April or May of 2010.
