Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Back when we were at CES, we were given a case of MagicJacks to give away to contest winners and the like. After scratching our heads about about what to do with them, we threw the question out to you, our valued readers. Based on your suggestions, we found a new home for the entire case of the things.

We contacted the USO, and asked them if they wanted them for the troops being posted overseas. To say that they were excited to get them would be a bit of an understatement. So, I’m sorry that we didn’t give them away to any of the readers who commented; we did make sure that they went to people that can really use them. Thanks for the suggestions all.
