I could do that with my existing phone. Or I could if I had a little
bit of time to do so, and less more important things to do than
something that would be little more than a joke!

I've had very little time over the last year to write any code at all
although I'll probably be making the time (I miss it).

My home phone is my cell phone. Or possibly my SIP phone (which is
actually the same physical phone). I have never yet plumbed a landline
into a phone line on a permanent basis; apart from anything else it
makes salescritter calls less frequent.
