Take your landline phone on the road with the netTALK DUO
If your trips regularly include the need to make phone calls back home, then the netTALK DUO phone adapter may be the perfect solution for keeping costs to a minimum.When plugged into a network port, the netTALK DUO turns you into your own phone company. Best of all, unlike some other pocket sized phone dongles, the netTALK DUO does not require you to keep your PC turned on.
And to make a great product even better - the initial investment of $69.95 includes the adapter and your first year of unlimited phone calls.
Once the first year is up, you can add additional years of unlimited calling for $29.95. The yearly fee also includes a variety of free features, including 411, caller ID, call forwarding, conference calling and extremely competitive international rates. In fact, if you travel abroad with the netTALK DUO, it may even be cheaper to make a local call than use the phones in that country!
Travelers can carry a small landline phone, or make calls using their computer, plus once you have a netTALK account, you can also make calls using their iPhone, Android or Blackberry applications.
To order yourself a netTALK DUO, or to learn more about its various features, check out netTalk.com. We'll also have a full review later this week.

Very similar to magic jack which I have been using for 5 years.

Actually, it is completely different from Magicjack, because you need to keep a PC on in order to use Magicjack. The cost of that PC+electricity alone makes it more expensive in the long run.
Plus, netTALK has highly rated customer service, something lacking from MJ. With this product, you have the flexibility of using it on its own, on your computer or on your mobile device.

Yes, quite similar to MagicJack. I have been using magicjack but have just now switched to a combination of GoogleVoice, SIPgate, and Rebtel. Call quality is better than I had on Magicjack and its totally free.

Thanks for the follow up....MJ works perfectly for me around the world. I am sure this will work for others.

I agree - and I'm a big MJ fan, but this product seems to be a good option for people not interested in keeping their PC running.
Thanks for your input!
