It worked "OK" if you are calling a friend who will not be pissed off when you keep saying "what" as the line quality is poor ,

but its basically free since you are using your magicjack USA number calling another USA number,

I used it to call my friends but used my cell phone to call for business.

I was in Thailand a few months ago and tried using Magic Jack from WiFi and LAN in various hotels in BKK & Chiang Mai. Lots of dropouts and delays. Broadband speeds were just not fast enough. I ended up using it just to check my voice mail on my home and business phones back in LA.
