MagicJack Announces Plug And Play Femto Cell

Jan 7, 2010, 6:54 PM by Eric M. Zeman

Today MagicJack announced what it claims is a carrier agnostic femto cell that will provide unlimited wireless calling for just $20 per year. MagicJack says that GSM-based cell phones can connect to the MagicJack Femto cell, which plugs into a computer. The call then transits the internet and MagicJack's voice service to the final endpoint. The idea is to improve in-home coverage for cell phone users and provide unlimited calling minutes. international phone calls will incur charges.
