I am very sad to write today that Ymax announced that they will not be coming out with the femtoJack as originally planned. I knew something was up because they were suppose to come out with the femtoJack last year but never did imagine that they would totally cancel their plans for it. It’s to bad because I had big plans to make this the #1 femtoJack guide on the website, outside of the official site of course.

I can’t seem to figure out why in the world Ymax would cancel this product because to me it seems like it could be even bigger than the magic Jack. Who wouldn’t want unlimited minutes while at home on their cell phone? My only inclination is that it had to do with them using cell signals and the cell companies raised a huge stink over it and that’s just to bad.  It’s crazy to me that these companies greed and desire for profitability causes the femtoJack to never even come into existence.

In the article I read it did however state that they are coming out with a magic Jack plus, which is an updated version of the previous magic Jack. The article I read said that there were a whole bunch of new features but the only one I remember was that it didn’t have to be hooked up to a computer like the old magic Jack.

With the femtoJack’s cancellation I’m not sure what I’m going to do with this site. I’ll probably throw some ads up since it gets a bit of traffic and then I dunno. Perhaps I will expand on VoIP services, maybe about the magic Jack. Or maybe I won’t do anything with it.

What a shame that we won’t be seeing the femtoJack!!!
