An USB dongle? Are you talking about the "amazing" Magicjack?

The Magicjack doesn't seem magic to me. It's so stupid to have to have your computer switched on, just to make an receive phone calls. That's as inconvenient as Skype.

The only good VoIP solution is an ATA that connects to your normal phone. It makes the phone work like before but the calls are cheaper.

A Wifi phone is also a solution, but Wifi sucks too much from my Nokia battery.

But to have to switch my computer on for phone calls over an USB dongle annoys me. I use my computer only for testing purposes with X-Lite or Ekiga.
