Wow Steve, what an unbelievable add on. Well worth twenty bucks or even
more! My old Magic Jack finally just died. It now ignores anything I have
plugged in to it and, I can only use the soft phone. Getting a replacement
and dealing with their tech support has proved to be a pain. But that sure
makes me want to try harder. It's nice to see all that old maw bell stuff
on steroids, and the ability to record calls on the fly in stealth mode?
Wow! I do miss having a nice clean clear sounding land line. I've got all
my old phone stuff in boxes. Thanks for passing on the information

I found a wonderful little plug in for Magic Jack. It adds all of those
neat phone features to Magic Jack.
You can visit the site and download a 7 day trial at
http://www.pcphonesoft.com/
It costs $19.95 to purchase a copy of the plug in.
Below is from the quick start guide to show you all of the features.
