(IE 5 year plans) etc. turned off my cable last June. now pay for HS internet only subscription, and connect my magicjack to one of my computers for phone service. my magicjack # is paid until 2014. sites like ninjavideo.net, and ovguide.com provide links to what ever show,movie, cartoon programming i want. no commercial interruptions, no infomercials and save $50.00 per month not paid for digital phone service, and $50.00 per month not paid for cable service. i enjoy my television as i never enjoyed it before. and my computer is more than just a way to read my email, and have an expensive word processor. this setup works best with a 1 gig video card, full ram capabilities of at least 3 gigs., and a processor speed of at least 2.2 ghz. also the magic jack needs the computer to be on at all times for the phone to work normally, other options for the magicjack phone include call forwarding, free directory assistance, email alerts for phone messages received when you are not home, or near your phone. multiple year billing options.

I'm down to a 3G modem for my laptop and a cell phone--that's all I need--totally wireless and mobile and I've got more entertainment than I can possibly find time to enjoy.
