Starting from Oct-1st-2009, there is now a "Canadian edition" of magicJack available at a higher rate (39.99 first year vs. 19.95):

For local Canadian customer, it is a bargain comparing with other Canadian phone service, and you got a local Canadian phone number which is not available for magicJack for the moment.  The Cantalk 9000 seems targeting more to home users rather than frequently travelers. For travelers, the magicJack is still the best choice in term of portability.

Here is something interesting about Google Voice:

"Google Voice gives people an additional phone number that's not tied to any one phone line. People can program the service to direct incoming calls to their cell phone, home or work numbers. Users can get e-mail transcripts of voice mails through the service. It can also be used to send text messages and place calls - even international ones - at low rates paid to Google, not the carriers, though those calls do use cell phone plan minutes."
