Customer Reviews:
Great for Communication.......2005-11-07
I am a student trying to keep costs as low as possible. With the iConnectHere phone service I am able to do this. At home I have the service set up instead of the regular landline, which , here in Israel is extremely expensive. At my lab, if I need to make an overseas call, I use the PCPhone software which is user-friendly and also cuts costs.
When setting up the Linksys I needed assistance from the Customer Care who were friendly and efficient, their chat service is very helpful and they waited on-line until my network was fully configured and I could use the service. Other than this configuration, it has been easy to use and any information I need is on their Member Center.
I recommend using this service.
I can talk to my parents now!.......2005-11-07
I am a student from outside the US and I study here. For a long time I've had to pay a lot of money for my international calls in order to be in contact with my parents. Then they purchased this starter kit and along with it they purchased a US based phone number (with the same area code as where I'm staying!). The shipment (international) was for free and so was the first month, so we can try this thing out. it's really cool the way it works. I call them from my home phone at the price of a local call, and they pick up the phone at my home country! if they want to call me, they do it for a very low rate (we bought a plan that gives you a phone number and 800 minutes a month to the US for $15 total). to sum it up, i'm really happy with this service. the quality is good and i can talk to my parents whenever i want to, without thinking of the price!
Satisfied customer.......2005-11-07
I'm very satisfied with this service. I'm currently living abroad, but thanks to this service, my family calls me all the time. They call my US phone number and I call them with the iCall North America plan for only $15.99 a month!! There are no limits on how many calls I can receive, and my family and friends don't mind, since they are calling a local US number. The adaptor is very easy to configure (I'm not a techi person) and it feels and sounds like a real phone. I highly recommend this company- the quality is good, the rates are great, they shipped the adaptor aboard and their customer care is friendly and helpful.
Very discouraging viop expereince.......2005-10-27
iconnecthere was never able to get my service up and running, even after I spent close to 6 hours of my time and over two days troubleshooting with their "technical support." Although I had already paid my activation fee, and despite the fact that my new broadband system was not working and had not ever worked since it had arrived, when I contacted customer support, I was told that it would take three days for someone to assist me. When someone did get in touch with me, I spent hours doing everything they instructed me to do, only to hit a wall and then be told that I was not actually dealing with a technician and would need to be passed to one, which would take...three days. In the end, my service never worked, and even though they acknowledged that it was not due to errors in configuration, etc. on my end, they could not provide an answer for their internal problem.
To add salt to the wound, they made me pay to ship back their adapter and refused to compensate me for this, even though I never experienced a working product. I was told that from their perspective, it was not smart business practice for them to pay for return shipping for people who did not want to use their services. Although I insisted that there is a marked difference between someone who chooses not to use their services and someone who would like to, but is prohibited due to unresolved technical issues on their side, they insisted that I pay for shipping to return the adapter, if I wanted my activation fee back and wanted to avoid further monthly charges.
With so many other providers out there, please consider choosing a provider that offers true technical support. Although they provide limited hours for customer support, do not confuse this with technical support. They do not provide adequate technical support during their posted available support times. I was told that much of their support lies overseas, not in North America, where I was sold service, which due to the time differences was why, they explained, I was consistently being asked to wait days for needed technical support. Although I had yet to experience the service I had already paid for, I was being asked to wait again and again for the support I needed to even get up and running. I was also never allowed to actually speak to a human being...the best they offer is limited online chat, which they also disconnect at their discretion.
With so many other voip providers out there consider a company that offers a true money-back guarantee for the trial period. iconnecthere will only refund your activation fee if you pay to return their device, regardless of fault on their part. Furthermore, you can only get your money back if you do not use more than 50 minutes in 2 to 3 minute increments during the 30 day trial period. You must read the small print in their terms. Finally, with so many other voip providers out there, consider a company that is willing to acknowledge error on their part, is able to demonstrate consideration for patient and respectful consumers (I was treated even worse when I expressed displeasure at the way I was being treated and the way my situation was being handled), and chooses to engage in ethical business practices..
While I never did have the chance to experience their broadband phone service, I did try their pc-phone feature (included in the broadband phone plan), which did not consistently connect and when connected, provided very poor voice quality. I imagine that this may have been what I would have experineced if the broadband phone would have ever worked.
In the end, I guess you get what you pay for. In this case, it would have been better if I had spent a little more to go with a better voip provider. Save your money and your time and insist on obtaining service from a company that is able to meet some basic requirements and is more deserving of your business. Although I am unable to force a company to treat me fairly or to treat me with dignity and respect, I am able to use my voice as a consumer and let others know what type of experience they may encounter when engaging certain services.
These guys rock!.......2005-09-14
Forget Vonage. Forget AT&T. Forget Earthlink. iconnecthere rocks.
Why? Simply put, their overall package is best for a guy like me who travels internationally. All other services focus on the US, and frankly I have a cell phone for that. But iconnecthere has the best rates for international location and a plan I love called ICall World.
And when it comes to price, come on. Everyone is with 5 bucks of each other. Big deal. But a mid-sized coompany like iconnecthere has the ability to treat you like a friend over the phone with their customer service. Just read online and you'll see hundreds of angry Vonage customers who got lost in the phone vacuum.
Stop looking for the biggest and go for the best.

Whether you're a backwoods junkie, or a weekend warrior, Maptech's Terrain Navigator can help you get the most out of your hikes and other off-road adventures. With up to 4000 topographic maps of Missouri, Terrain Navigator has your trip covered, and then some! You never have to worry about carrying around cumbersome notepads and stray wads of paper in your backpack again. With Terrain Navigator, you can plot out all your trips out on your PC, then download your routes and notes onto your Pocket PC device. When you return from your trip, all the notes you've taken, along with the routes of your spontaneous day trips, can be uploaded back into your PC, and voila, you've created a detailed log of your trip directly onto the map.
Maptech has scanned each of the more than 58,000 USGS topographical maps of the United States into high-quality images onto CDs that you can easily upload into your PC. Terrain Navigator's advanced search functions help you find the exact map you need in a matter of seconds. You can then use your PC to view maps in 2D or 3D, plot your trip with your own trail markers and notes, and print out your maps, along with your annotations, from any standard desktop printer. Terrain Navigator will also give you a report about the trip, including the total distance and total elevation loss or gain of your prospective route. You can even break your journey down by each leg of the route. With Pocket Navigator software (sold separately), you can then download the routes you plan to take onto your Pocket PC device. When you return home, you simply upload the maps from your pocket device into your PC, and all the details you'll ever need about your trip have been saved, including the exact routes you took, your comments on the weather and terrain, comments on the food you ate, the number of mosquito bites you suffered, and whatever else you've chosen to note.
And while you're miles from nowhere, you can use your Pocket PC to help you take full advantage of your freedom. Say you want to explore a valley you've just discovered, but it's a cloudless 85 degrees and you don't want to carry your forty pounds of gear down the trail. Simply use your Pocket PC to mark your coordinates on your map with a note that says "Stuff left here," and off you go, forty pounds lighter and a whole lot quicker.
Search Features
Advanced search functions allow you to find the map you need instantly. Can't remember the exact region? No problem. Simply plug in the name of the river or summit that you do remember, and you're all set. In addition to searching by more than 50 types of place names and even by zip code, Terrain Navigator also allows you to search by latitude and longitude, or with the graphical index map.
Print Features
Maptech's print quality is outstanding and is comparable to the original USGS paper topos. All Maptech maps can be printed out using standard office printers, with or without the USGS borders and legend, latitude/longtitude grids, UTM grids, or compass alignment guides. And once you annotate your personal map, you can print it out either as a flat map or in 3D. Terrain Navigator also allows you to print adjacent maps together in a single, seamless printout. What's more, you can print cross-sections and line-of-sight profiles with the latest high-resolution elevation data available.
GPS Features Pocket Navigator software integrates mapping and GPS technology on a Pocket PC. You can also turn your notebook PC into a moving map display by connecting it to a GPS. Terrain Navigator allows you to upload and download marks and tracks between your PC and your GPS receiver (though you can not download maps onto your GPS receiver).

Maptech Terrain Navigator Pro takes Terrain Navigator software to a whole new level with expanded features designed for professionals such as project managers, architects, land-use officials, as well as expert hikers and expedition leaders. Navigator Pro not only offers the full array of features that Terrain Navigator has come to be known for, but it also allows users to download and use high-quality aerial photos, share 3-D fly-around video clip recordings of the terrain, export maps to graphics program, and much, much more.
Just like Maptech's Terrain Navigator, Terrain Navigator Pro includes between 300 and 4000 topographic maps of Missouri. And as with Terrain Navigator, if you are planning a hike, you can plot out all your trips out on your PC, then download your routes and notes onto your Pocket PC device. When you return from your trip, all the notes you've taken, along with the routes of your spontaneous day trips, can be uploaded back into your PC, and voila, you've created a detailed log of your trip directly onto the map. Your maps can be printed on any standard desktop printer with or without the USGS borders and legend, latitude/longtitude grids, UTM grids, or compass alignment guides. And with Pocket Navigator software (sold separately), Terrain Navigator Pro can be integrated with mapping and GPS technology on a Pocket PC.
Terrain Navigator Pro is truly designed for the professional in mind. In addition to several enhancements on the standard Terrain Navigator features, Terrain Navigator Pro offers several advanced features, including:
- Aerial Photos: Access and download 1-meter resolution Digital Orthophoto Quads via the Internet for a full year and use them the same way you use topo maps. The photos can be printed out on any standard desktop printer, and you can add notes, project them in 3-D, and view them alongside your topo maps. Photos are available for most areas of the continental U.S., and once you've downloaded them, they're yours to keep.
- GeoTips and Dynamic Street Addresses: Mouse-over maps or photos to determine addresses, coordinates, elevation, grade, and more. With the software's powerful "auto text" feature, you can instantly annotate a map or photo with that information. You can also search for maps and locations by typing in a street address.
- 3-D Fly-around Video Clip Recordings: Perhaps the coolest new feature of all! Terrain Navigator Pro allows you to display a map or aerial photo in 3-D, then record it as a short video clip. With this feature, you can email the video clip to a client or colleague, or even paste it into a PowerPoint presentation.
- Advanced Graphics and CAD/GIS Features: To assist with your presentations, you can export maps, photos and charts to Photoshop and other graphics programs. You can also use the topo maps and aerial photos on ArcView, ArcGIS, Intergraph, AutoCAD, MapInfo, MicroStation, ERDAS, and other CAD/GIS applications.
