The softphone screen will always be on your desktop, but you can minimize it. It has a dialing pad, an address book for you and a list of the most recent phone calls you have made or received. It also has links to commonly used websites.

Voice mail is a fun feature of the Magic Jack and the softphone screen has a button to access it. When you first set this up, you will need to dial the voice mail and enter the default password you were given. Make sure you change your password when you are setting up the voice mail options.

You are asked for your correct physical address because of the 911 feature with Magic Jack. Because the service isn’t linked to your location, they have no way of knowing where you are if you have an emergency. While traveling with this phone, you may want to have another phone available for emergencies so you don’t have to keep changing your default location.

Other buttons on the softphone screen take you to popular websites. Of course Google and Yahoo are on there, as well as AOL and Weather.com. The 411 button takes you to a web site that is a searchable telephone directory.

These are the basics for using Magic Jack. It is possible to save a lot of money on your long distance phone calls with it. Now that you know the best place to buy one, you can decide if you want to try out this new internet phone service.
