I just picked up a Magic Jack and set it up on both my Desk top computer and my Laptop. This has got to be the most amazing product ever. I love it! On my Desk top it did not run as well as on my laptop. On my Desktop it has some cutting out and was not working too well. But on my Laptop it runs very nice and smooth. Voice quality is excellent and very little cut out. Its like using a land line honestly. Amazing. And so easy.
I feel this has to do with the Desktop machine specs. As i'm running the same operating system on both machines Windows XP Pro. You need at least Windows service pack 3 installed to run Magic Jack. There are alot of variables that determine call quality. Machine speed, USB port speed, Ram, internet connection quality. So i was using the same internet connect. Local high speed wireless service. My Laptop has a 2 gig (2000 mghz) processor speed, 500 meg ram... My Desktop isnt as fast as my laptop and was the cause of the cutting out and poor voice quality.
Desktop specs - 1 gig processor, 300 meg ram. Maybe a lower speed usb port on that machine too. So that combination did not work good for the Magic Jack. With the Laptop tho its excellent. And i would highly recommend it.
