]]> Comment on My Business Will Save $800 This Year with Magic Jack by skane http://handpickedtomatoes.com/blog/?p=1810&cpage=1#comment-5610 skane Sat, 22 May 2010 15:03:47 +0000 http://handpickedtomatoes.com/blog/?p=1810#comment-5610 Eve, thanks for the great comment. "...a good option with the exception of having to change long time established numbers". Yes, for me this was the biggest thing too. I went into it thinking it would be the technology, but really it was getting the word out to friends, family, and clients about the new number that was the grunt in the game. Since I wrote this post, I switched the home land line to magicJack as well, saving an estimated $3,500 more. A nice return on grunt. Regarding international calling, magicJack to magicJack calls are free. Eve, thanks for the great comment. “…a good option with the exception of having to change long time established numbers”.

A client of mine in Singapore had established an account with magicJack before moving there and she loves it. Because I am international as well this seems like a good option with the exception of having to change long time established numbers. Will look further into this.

Lots of tech value, good food, fun and hey a couple of Chinese Dragons and a thousound of their friends. Funny you should bring up the Square payment processing cube. A friend and I were just talking about how best to process payments at an outdoor art faire in Brea next month which made me think of Jack Dorsey's "Square". For those who aren't familiar with Square, I posted a video by TechCrunch's M.G.
