I just plugged this in to my PC and it immediately pulls up a registration form, So I am assuming this was never used or registered, so the winning bidder should have no trouble at all setting up an account in their own name.
I'm sorry I don't know for sure if this has been used or not it belonged to my Father and he says it's just been laying around the house since he bought it last year, He can't remember if he registered it or not either.
If any issues do arise after the winning bidder receives this I would be more than happy to do whatever I can to get this working - Although I am pretty sure it's never been registered.
I have one and it is great - but you need a cable or dsl internet or wifi connection to get a good phone connection - we have satellite internet at home and it works but it's like an overseas connection - I use it with my laptop at subway with there free wifi and it has a great connection - and it's only $19.99 a year for service!
Just as KarenLuetta said, It's $19.99 a year for phone service, you get to choose your own number, etc ..
And I do agree, You have to have a pretty good cable/dsl connection in order for it to work well. A lot of activity on a not so good connection makes for pretty cruddy phone calls.
wow i just looked up what this was and i think im in desperate need of one! my girlfriend refuses to call me because shes afraid my parents will answer hahaha.
