I continue to be AMAZED by this device! It is the ONLY wired phone service in my house now. It is merged with my GoogleVoice account & even my MagicJack is routed through this device. (Since I had already purchased a 5-yr service with MJ, I do not wish to waste that. So, I set it up to provide a local number in Arkansas and just FORWARD the calls to my Ooma number. I don’t even have the MJ device plugged up. It all works flawlessly!
I did elect to purchase the “Premier” service from Ooma. At $100 per year, it is still very cheap and adds extra functions that I like. Not the least of these extra functions is the ability to ring on more than one phone. In my case, my cell phone rings along with my home phone. So, I only need to publish one phone number & I can be reached either at home or on my cell. Ever see THAT on AT&T?? <grin>
Over the past couple of weeks, the most popular articles on this site have been those about the Ooma device and its ability to replace the normal telephone. I have had a record number of hits on the site (198 on 30Sep09 – previous record was 65). More than a few of those were looking for more info about the Ooma and several hit the link to buy the device.
Unfortunately, I have been in the hospital and unable to complete the setup for direct sales. I hope to have the “online store” set up within the next week.
In the mean time, if you wish to purchase the Ooma from me, please send an email to chief dot shep at gmail dot com (you can read this correctly if you are human) or use the “Call me for Free” button below and we can work out the details in email or over the phone. Payment can be made with PayPal only at this time.
You just enter your name & phone number then Google will call you AND me and make the contact for a free call.
NOTICE: Since I will need your phone number DO NOT BLOCK your number. I will provide my phone number when we exchange emails.
(FYI, Google Voice is in Beta testing and you must be invited to get it. You can sign up at http://google.com/voice)
