The home phone is back in action

MagicJack has succeeded in porting our old home phone number over to their service, as of this morning.

The system also has a nifty voicemail feature that records caller messages and then emails them to Maria and me as .wav attachments. We can access them on any of our computers or on our iPhones.

That makes it much easier for us to check our messages and less likely that we’ll overlook one or fail to respond in a timely fashion – a big problem with the cumbersome voicemail arrangement we had before switching to MagicJack.

So, if you’re a friend or relative who might have occasion to call our home number, rest assured it’s working again and the message system is better than ever.
