I noticed when you put someone on hold they have music to listen to. I noticed this yesterday when i put someone on hold they thought i was on some kind of business line. BTW the music was Aerosmith because i called my MJ with my cell and had old lady put me on hold. This is a cool feature for sure, The other person had some kind of elevator music. So its not the same tune everytime you use the put a person on hold feature. Cool

There is even more features that were never there before like the caller id. B4 i say anything yes i did build a caller id box with a 100k ohm resistor. However this is the way caller id is working for me now and its different then b4. Im in florida so if i call someone in florida they get my MJ # plus my city. But if i call someone outside of florida they get my MJ # plus my state. The interesting thing is if i disconnect my caller id box with the resistor in it what will happen is unknown at the moment as im busy with other computer things more important then MJ and i only notice these new features because the phone is glued to old ladies mouth 24/7 and its running on my main network puter, I also noticed the volume on MJ has been increased on the incoming even though i have had no problems ever. Also when someone calls me at best i only get there phone number twice. Example 5168721111 and then 516 872-1111 at the bottom. Laughing

I gather this only works if your phone has a hold button, right? I don't see one in the Magic jack softphone interface.

To put someone on hold, just hit the green "flash/talk" button on your phone or "send" on your softphone. Both work the same way.

When two people call you and you want to have a three way, while one is on hold, just hit ## and you can talk between all three of you. To end the three way call, hit #* to cancel three way.

The music-on-hold seems to work on any phone by pressing the "flash" button while on a call, or if your phone doesn't have a flash button, just quickly press and release the hook switch. (hang up button)

Does anyone know if I can select what music I want my callers to hear when I put them on hold?

Good for a business, I guess. I have no use for it.
It actually pisses off most people I talk to on my MJ...
They play some BAD music.

The hold music sounds like the standard canned Asterisk hold playlist.

The hold music had me laughing at first, and angry quickly. some of the music anoying and very choppy. the should make it to where you can upload your own hold music. what would it take? 10mbs for 3 songs.

Yeah if that... but MJ is prolly scared. I remember when GrandCentral allowed you to upload your caller tune music. But someone scared 'em off because of copyright stuff. So, I think that MJ wants to stay away from getting sued:-p. All I have to say is.... YOUTUBE. I don't see everydamn artist trying to get videos taken off.
But that's my 2 cents.
