We picked up an extra cell phone line ($10/month) and bought an old CellSocket base station on eBay for about $30. The CellSocket runs all our old wired phones just like we still have a landline. Got an ancient Nokia that matches the CellSocket for next to nothing (also on eBay), dropped in a SIM card, and I was done. It works great, and saves at least $20/month off BellSouth's outrageous fees (plus free long distance and all the trimmings).
