If you never want to get a phone bill anymore, or you think Skype is too
expensive with poor voice quality, or you have found that Google Voice does not
measure up to Google Search, we invite you to try magicTalk (from the voice
experts). In addition to the best voice experience available today, magicTalk
may include a free phone number, voice mail, directory assistance, call
waiting, caller ID and customer care. Instead of plugging in a traditional
phone, magicTalk users communicate over their computer mic and speakers or by
using wired headphones or wireless headsets (an increasingly common practice
with smartphones, iPhones(r) and computers for talking, gaming and enjoying music
and other media).
magicTalk is available for Beta download today at www.magicTalk.com. The
company expects millions of downloads within 90 days of launch. A recent third
party review of magicTalk is available at
